  • Sendai Shoukaki/naishikyou Internal Medicine Hajime No Clinic Izumi Chuuouin is a specialized gastroenterology and endoscopy clinic in Sendai with an outstanding reputation (4.7/5 from 448 reviews). The clinic excels in gastroscopy procedures, offering sedation options that make the experience completely painless – a stark contrast to the discomfort many patients report from other facilities. The medical staff provides thorough pre-examination explanations and demonstrates exceptional bedside manner. The clinic stands out for its patient-centered approach, with many reviewers specifically noting the kindness of both doctors and support staff. One significant advantage for non-Japanese patients is that at least one doctor speaks English very well, making consultations accessible for those with limited Japanese ability. The clinic’s focus on digestive health makes it particularly valuable for patients experiencing stomach discomfort or requiring endoscopic examinations. Many patients who previously feared gastroscopies report positive experiences here, with several mentioning they plan to return for regular check-ups.

Many patients specifically mention the kindness and politeness of both doctors and staff. The thorough pre-examination explanations help ease anxiety, particularly for first-time patients. Several reviewers who previously feared gastroscopic procedures report completely changed perceptions after visiting this clinic, with many planning to return for regular check-ups.

    English Language Proficiency

    At least one doctor at this clinic speaks English "very well" according to a patient review. The staff was described as "very kind" despite a patient's "very poor" Japanese ability, suggesting they make efforts to accommodate non-Japanese speakers. The explicit mention of strong English capabilities from a doctor makes this clinic potentially suitable for English-speaking patients seeking gastroenterology care in Sendai.
