Maeda Clinic
About
Maeda Clinic, located in Nishihama, Wakayama City, offers a wide range of medical services centered on internal medicine, including gastroenterology, proctology, and surgery. The clinic director graduated from Jichi Medical University and has accumulated over 30 years of extensive clinical experience as a gastrointestinal surgeon at university hospitals and affiliated institutions, delivering high-quality medical care to the local community based on that expertise. A notable feature of the clinic is its strong focus on endoscopic examinations performed by a certified endoscopist, including gastroscopy (upper gastrointestinal endoscopy) and colonoscopy (lower gastrointestinal endoscopy). Sedation is administered during procedures to minimize patient discomfort and burden, and a high-performance endoscopy system has been introduced to ensure highly accurate examinations. If colonic polyps are detected, same-day outpatient removal is available, and same-day surgery is also offered for hemorrhoidal conditions as well as excision of epidermal cysts and lipomas. In addition, specialized abdominal ultrasound (echo) examinations are conducted, enabling assessment of internal conditions with minimal physical burden. The clinic covers general internal medicine from acute conditions such as colds and influenza to chronic lifestyle-related diseases, and also provides various vaccinations and health check-ups. Consultations in English are available, and the facility is equipped with parking and barrier-free access, creating an environment that is accessible to a wide range of patients. Clinic hours are 9:00 AM to 12:30 PM and 4:00 PM to 6:30 PM, with the clinic closed on Sundays and public holidays.
