Pediatric Care
We provide comprehensive care for children’s health issues, including fever, cough, runny or stuffy nose, vomiting and diarrhea, as well as many other conditions.

(Burns, Abscesses, etc.)
We provide treatment for minor injuries such as cuts, scrapes, burns, removal of foreign
objects in the throat (such as fish bones).
We also perform skin suturing and I-&-D.
If more advanced care is needed, we will refer you to a specialized medical facility.
We also perform earwax removal irrigation.
STD Testing and Treatment
We offer testing and treatment for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), including:
- Syphilis
- Gonorrhea
- HIV
- Chlamydia
- Genital herpes
… and other common STDs.
- HIV prevention & unwanted pregnancy prevention
-
Within 72 hours, you should take anti-HIV medicine (Taffic or Biktarvy), 1 tablet /day for 30 days .
Within 72 hours, you should take emergency contraceptive pill.
We provide these medicines.
Pain Control
Pain should be rated by each patient using a “10-point scale”.
1/10- 3/10 is mild pain, 4/10 -6/10 is moderate pain, and 7/10-10/10 is severe pain.
For example, lumbar disc hernia causes persistent & severe pain (=10/10).
We can control such severe pain by slow intravenous anti-inflammatory drugs & morphine sulfate, and
take a lumbar MRI on the same day.
Once the diagnosis is confirmed, nerve root block is arranged with our
collaborative specialist.
We provide oral pain medicine based on patient history, severity, and pain origin.
We consider “pain relief” one of the most important tasks for our patients.
We prepare over 20 kinds of pain medications.
Immunization
Our clinic provides nearly all available vaccines, including the Japanese encephalitis
vaccine.
With our director being a certified specialist, you can rely on accurate advice and safe, precise
administration of vaccinations.
- Routine Vaccines These are vaccines recommended by the government:
-
- DPT-IPV (Diphtheria, Pertussis, Tetanus, Polio – 4-in-1 vaccine)
- DT (Diphtheria, Tetanus – 2-in-1 vaccine)

- Notice for Summer Travel to Rural Areas
-
JE(Japanese encephalitis) infection of Japanese people is only 5-10cases /year due to 100％ of vaccination rate.
However, 70-80% of pigs in rural area have JE virus from July to September.
So, non-immunized foreigners (from US, Canada, Europe, Australia) should receive JE vaccine twice (at least once even after arrival in Japan).
DVT
(Long Flight Thrombosis )
DVT after long flight is called “Long Flight Thrombosis”, which is a life-threatening
condition.
So, early & accurate diagnosis is important.
Our clinic handles 40-60 cases /year.
Initial symptoms are unilateral calf pain and swelling.
D-dimer measurement & lower-leg echogram should be done.
We can measure D-dimer on site within 15 minutes, and echogram on site.
We provide oral medication for treatment, and subcutaneous injection for prevention of returning long
flight.
If you suffer from lower leg injury (sprain, fracture, strong contusion),especially when skiing, you need DVT prevention.
We have Clexane 4,000 U, or oral anticoagulants .
As risk assessment, we recommend D-dimer on site(within 15 min.) and Color Doppler Echogram.
