Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology

January 12,2024 Update

Introduction

My name is Sumiko Nagoshi, a professor in the Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology. Our department is basically in charge of medical services for the entire area of the Gastroenterology department. Doctors in this department are trained to give medical services for all digestive disorders.

These medical services for gastroenterology are mainly categorized into; malignant diseases such as esophageal cancer, stomach cancer, colorectal cancer, liver cancer, gallbladder cancer and pancreatic cancer, and benign diseases such as esophageal inflammation, gastric and duodenal ulcers and inflammatory bowel disease. Or they could be categorized into intractable diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease and daily diseases or non-refractory diseases such as gastric and duodenal ulcers and reflux esophagitis. We also provide services to many patients with hepatitis and pancreatitis. We are also involved with emergency services daily, and not just for malignant diseases such as cancer or inflammatory bowel disease which could be refractory. Those emergency patients who come with gastrointestinal bleeding, intestinal obstructions or obstructive jaundice, which in many cases are emergency patients are also important medical treatment subjects. Internal Medicine basically tends to be mainly drug treatment and nutrition therapy, however for a department of gastrointestinal medicine such as ours, we give patients a diagnosis using an endoscope and remove early-stage cancer, which is a significant difference from the classification between internal medicine and surgery from 20 to 30 years ago. If it is early-stage cancer, it can be removed endoscopically in internal medicine and liver cancer can be treated by radiofrequency ablation in internal medicine along with vascular embolization requests to radiology. However, advanced or metastatic cancer requires surgical treatment or required anticancer drug treatment, so we will refer that to the department of surgery. Basically, patients who have a consultation in our department are often able receive services from the department of surgery or the department of radiology, and multiple departments cooperate in the treatment.

Patient care at our department

Outpatient care
In the case of the first visit, you will receive a check up during the reception hours of 9 am to 11 am from Monday to Friday, and then come to the doctor of the Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology in charge of new patients in the emergency clinic. We recommend that you have a referral letter from another medical institution, so that you can go to our clinic smoothly. Even if you have no referral letter, you can see the doctor in charge of a new patient without a referral letter. The doctor in charge of new patients will treat all patients with any digestive disease or with the chief complaint of gastrointestinal symptoms.
The return visit is for the outpatients who need to receive medical care at our department after the first visit or leaving from our hospital where they receive treatment as inpatients. If a highly specialized consultation is required for a revisit outpatient, the doctor in charge may be determined according to the doctor's specialty. The main specialties of outpatient physicians include upper and lower gastrointestinal disorders, functional gastrointestinal disorders, inflammatory bowel disease, liver diseases, pancreatico-biliary diseases, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, early colorectal cancer, liver cancer, pancreatico-biliary cancer. You will need to make a reservation after your first visit to our department.
Endoscopic inspection
For endoscopy, you can receive an endoscopic examination immediately on that day if you are consulted in a state when you haven’t eaten. In the case of the lower gastrointestinal endoscopy, prior treatment will be carried out before the day of the examination, but it will even be done on that day if it requires urgency.
Hospitalization
In principle, the date of hospitalization is determined by the doctor in charge of hospitalization through the outpatient clinic. In the case of a referral from another hospital, they will have to visit the outpatient clinic first. If the patients themselves are unable to come to us, the family member or parents, etc. will need to visit the outpatient clinic as their representative. The hospitalization essentially required a reservation, but same day hospitalization will be considered when there is an emergency.
