Kawasakiichoka· Gastroenterology
Kawasakiichoka Gastroenterology is a specialized medical clinic in Fukuoka focusing on digestive health and gastrointestinal issues. The facility operates on an appointment-based system, which helps manage patient flow but can result in a crowded waiting area during busy periods. Their endoscopic procedures are performed under sedation, making potentially uncomfortable examinations more tolerable for patients. The clinic is particularly noted for its warm, personalized approach to care, with multiple reviews highlighting the kind and attentive nature of both doctors and nurses. The medical team takes time to listen to patient concerns and provides customized treatment plans tailored to individual needs. One doctor speaks English, making this an accessible option for non-Japanese speakers. While the clinic receives high marks for medical care and staff interaction (4.5/5 from 26 reviews), some patients note that the bathroom placement in the waiting area creates privacy concerns for those with digestive issues. The clinic’s location is described as somewhat distant for some patients, but worth the travel for the quality of care received.
Patient Feedback
Patients consistently praise the clinic for its warm atmosphere and personalized care approach, contrasting it with the “dry” experience at other medical facilities. The medical team receives high marks for attentiveness, with doctors taking time to listen and create tailored treatment plans. The sedated endoscopy procedures are highlighted as a significant benefit. Criticisms focus on practical aspects: the crowded waiting room during peak times, the clinic’s distance from some residential areas, and concerns about bathroom privacy in the waiting area.
