About
Sekikawa Village National Health Insurance Sekikawa Clinic, located in Sekikawa Village, Iwafune District, Niigata Prefecture, is a public clinic providing internal medicine care for local residents. The clinic is staffed by two physicians: Director Masafumi Tsuchida and Dr. Yoichi Sawada. As an insured medical institution, treatments covered by health insurance are available. The clinic operates primarily on an appointment basis, accepting phone reservations for both first-time and same-day appointments. Advance contact is recommended, as walk-in patients may experience longer wait times. Patients with cold symptoms such as fever, cough, or runny nose are asked to call in advance, as the clinic implements strict infection control measures to separate patients with suspected infectious diseases from those receiving general care. The clinic has also introduced an online eligibility verification system using My Number cards, actively promoting medical DX initiatives. For patients with dyslipidemia, hypertension, or diabetes, the clinic provides lifestyle disease management using treatment plans, offering continuous management of chronic conditions. With parking facilities and barrier-free access, the clinic provides an accessible environment for those arriving by car or with physical disabilities.
