Yoko Clinic
About
Yoko Clinic is conveniently located just a one-minute walk from JR Kiwa Station, offering internal medicine services under a female director who holds certifications as a specialist in general internal medicine, gastroenterology, and gastrointestinal endoscopy. A major strength of this clinic is its focus on endoscopic procedures: gastroscopy is available with transnasal insertion to reduce discomfort, and sedation is also an option, while colonoscopy patients can take their bowel preparation medication in a private room with a dedicated toilet. Colorectal polyps discovered during examination can be removed on the spot. The clinic employs FUJIFILM's "ELUXEO 7000 System" for endoscopy, enabling highly accurate examinations with state-of-the-art equipment. An in-house blood testing analyzer allows rapid processing of blood samples, supporting prompt diagnosis and treatment. As a general internal medicine practice, the clinic also addresses a wide range of symptoms including headaches, dizziness, chest pain, and abdominal pain, serving as a trusted neighborhood physician for the local community. Vaccination for influenza and COVID-19 is available, and self-pay services such as hair loss treatment and cosmetic IV drips are also offered. The clinic operates entirely by appointment, with morning hours from 9:00 to 12:00 and afternoon hours from 13:00 to 15:00 and 16:00 to 18:00, and is closed on Wednesdays, Sundays, and public holidays. English-language consultations are available, and the clinic accepts credit cards and electronic payments. Parking and barrier-free facilities are provided, and the clinic maintains thorough infection control measures, including clearly separated pathways for patients with infectious symptoms and general patients.
