  • No recurrence of pterygium
  • Efficient examinations and explanations

    • Usami Ophthalmology is a specialized eye clinic in Shizuoka that provides comprehensive ophthalmological care. The facility handles various eye conditions, including pterygium removal surgery and treatments for eye infections and swelling. The clinic is consistently busy, with patients often arriving early to secure their place in line—doors typically open around 8:50 AM, with many patients lining up before 8:30 AM. Wait times can be substantial, with some patients reporting waits of 2-3 hours from arrival to examination. Despite the wait, the doctor delivers thorough examinations and clear, detailed explanations that patients find reassuring. The medical staff, including nurses, are noted for their efficiency, friendliness, and accommodating attitude. The overall atmosphere is professional and patient-focused. For those planning to visit, arriving early is strongly recommended due to the clinic’s popularity and the first-come, first-served system that appears to be in place.

    Patient Feedback

    Patients consistently praise the doctor for thorough examinations and clear explanations that alleviate concerns. The nursing staff receives positive feedback for their efficiency, kindness, and flexibility. The primary drawback mentioned is the long wait times—patients report arriving early (around 8:30 AM) and still waiting 2-3 hours for their examination. Despite this inconvenience, the quality of care and the positive attitude of the staff make the clinic highly rated (4.4/5 stars).
