Matsumoto Internal Medicine Clinic

About

Located in Futaba-machi, Yamagata City, Yamagata Prefecture, Matsumoto Internal Medicine Clinic is a community-based clinic specializing in internal medicine. To ensure stable access to necessary medications for patients, the clinic actively adopts generic prescriptions in collaboration with pharmacies. Generic prescribing means issuing prescriptions without specifying manufacturers or brand names, which offers the benefit of lower medication costs compared to brand-name drugs. For patients who prefer brand-name drugs, the clinic can continue to provide conventional service upon request at the pharmacy. These initiatives aim to reduce patients' financial burden while taking into account medication supply conditions and Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare policies. The clinic is closed on Sundays and holidays, as well as Wednesday and Saturday afternoons, and observes irregular closures during Golden Week, Obon, and year-end and New Year holidays according to the calendar. In terms of facilities, the clinic has a parking lot and is barrier-free, making it easily accessible for patients arriving by car or with mobility challenges. The ability to provide services in English is another notable feature of the clinic. As a primary care physician serving the local community in the field of internal medicine, the clinic has established a medical care system that responds to a wide range of needs.
