Our clinic will open in February 2023, with easy to access from train and subway lines, and Tokyo International Airport; it is a 3-minute walk from JR Kamata Station East Exit and a 5-minute walk from Keikyu Kamata West Exit.

Blood glucose, HbA1c, cholesterol can be tested in 5 minutes on the same day with a fingertip blood sample. Thyroid hormones (TSH, FT3, FT4), white blood cells, and CRP can also be tested in about 40 minutes, and you can get these results and use them for quick treatment decisions.
We have also introduced a 24-hour WEB/LINE appointment system to improve patient services. You can check availability without entering your personal information. You can make an appointment in about 2 minutes. A first visit is available at any time, even if you do not have a referral letter from other hospitals or clinics. In order to reduce waiting times, we have prepared a web questionnaire in 7 languages, and we have a system that enables us to quickly respond to patients' conditions and get ready for them in advance (Japanese, English, Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, Spanish, Portuguese).
We are also open on Saturday afternoons. We see patients from 8:00am and during lunch time so you can visit our clinic before going to work or during your lunch break. In addition, cashless payments such as credit cards are already supported (air pay, air pay QR). Health checkups and various vaccinations are available. English is OK. There is a partial parking ticket service.
