About
Hiraoka Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinic, located in Chino City, Nagano Prefecture, is a specialized obstetrics and gynecology clinic that has supported women's healthcare in the region. Dr. Masato Hiraoka, the director, holds certification as a Japanese Obstetrics and Gynecology Specialist and continues the community-oriented healthcare practice established by his father. In obstetrics, the clinic provides prenatal checkups from pregnancy confirmation to around 30 weeks; while deliveries are not handled, referrals to preferred delivery facilities are available. In gynecology, the clinic offers comprehensive services including general examinations, menopause consultations, infertility testing and treatment (ovulation induction, timing therapy, intrauterine insemination), premarital checkups, STI testing, emergency contraception prescriptions, cervical cancer screening, and various vaccinations. The clinic also accepts cervical cancer screenings for residents of Chino City, Hara Village, Fujimi Town, and Shimosuwa Town, contributing to regional healthcare across a broad area. As a collaborative medical institution, it works with Suwa Red Cross Hospital and Suwa Central Hospital, serving as a bridge to advanced medical facilities when necessary. Appointments are prioritized, and first-time patients cannot make reservations, so registration is required at least 30 minutes before the end of consultation hours. Payment is cash only. The clinic is easily accessible, approximately 7-8 minutes by car from the Chuo Expressway "Suwa IC," with a parking lot accommodating 30 vehicles. The facility is also barrier-free, providing an accessible environment for patients with physical disabilities.
