About the Osu Clinic
Osu Clinic
The Osu Clinic, Ito Hospital's affiliated treatment center, opened its doors in the city of Nagoya in June 2004. It shares the same founding philosophy as the Ito Hospital, which is to serve people suffering from thyroid disorders.
The clinic focuses on offering high-quality, specialized medical services to thyroid patients living in the Tokai area. After numerous visits to Nagoya from our Tokyo base over five years before finally deciding on its Naka-ku location, the clinic began offering services while implementing innovative approaches such as digitalized medical charts and testing systems, preceding its Tokyo counterpart in these areas. Now in its fourth year of operation, the Osu Clinic is well recognized and many patients suffering from Graves' disease, Hashimoto's disease and thyroid tumors visit the clinic to seek treatment from areas including Kansai and Hokuriku, in addition to the Tokai area. An increasing number of patients also come to us on referrals from their primary care physicians.

The Osu Clinic also offers unique screening for thyroid disorders. In addition to essential early diagnosis procedures for thyroid disorders such as blood tests, ultrasonography (ultrasound) and fine-needle aspiration cytology, ethanol injection therapy using state-of-the-art technology has been successfully offered to patients with benign tumors requiring no overnight hospitalization. Should a patient require surgery in the Nagoya area, we perform the procedure with the help of the Marumo Hospital in Meito-ku.
The Osu Clinic strives to follow in the footsteps of the Ito Hospital. The exceptional level of care at the Ito Hospital was perfected during its 70-year history and continues to evolve. By applying the expertise that has been cultivated over the years at our Tokyo location in a highly-responsive clinic setting, we can offer accurate and gentle services that meet the individual needs of each and every patient.
As a part of the Ito Hospital family, the Osu Clinic looks forward to serving your medical needs.
