Nishiura Internal Medicine Clinic

About

Medical Corporation Nishiura Internal Medicine Clinic is located in Nishioi, Kinokawa City, Wakayama Prefecture, approximately a 7-minute walk from Uchida Station on the JR Wakayama Line. Inheriting the former Nishiura Clinic, this clinic opened in 1999 and specializes in internal medicine, respiratory medicine, gastroenterology, and rehabilitation medicine. Dr. Masayoshi Nishiura, the clinic director, graduated from Hyogo Medical University and, after training at the Osaka Prefectural Adult Disease Center and the First Department of Internal Medicine at Wakayama Medical University, established the clinic. He holds a Doctor of Medicine degree and is a certified internist by the Japanese Society of Internal Medicine. The clinic focuses on the prevention and treatment of lifestyle-related diseases, particularly diabetes, as well as obesity, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and gout. It offers dietary therapy guidance by nutritionists and exercise therapy prescriptions. The clinic's policy emphasizes treatment with minimal reliance on medication, actively incorporating Kampo (traditional Japanese herbal medicine), and features an in-house pharmacy for convenient prescription pick-up. In addition to specialized outpatient services such as diabetes, obesity, menopause, and Kampo consultation clinics, the clinic also provides adult health checkups (half-day comprehensive health screenings) and osteoporosis treatment. Consultation hours are from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM, with closures on Thursday and Saturday afternoons, the second Thursday, Sundays, and public holidays. Home visits are available, and referrals to Naga Hospital, the Japanese Red Cross, and Wakayama Medical University can be arranged as needed. The clinic offers English-speaking services, has 20 free parking spaces, and is equipped with barrier-free facilities, providing comprehensive care to meet a wide range of community healthcare needs.
