Oak Umeda Ladies Clinic

Went in on a Tuesday evening around 3:30 pm with no appointment for a general gyno check up. Luckily it was not busy at all and It was pretty speedy. The doctor was fluent in english and she was very nice. The lady at the reception was also very nice but shy to speak english. I do not speak Japanese (yet) but we somehow found a way to communicate. 10/10 would recommend.

I called in a couple days ago to make a appointment. They told me it would be busy on Saturday, but I chose to come in anyway. I had to wait for quite a while for a pap smear and to get some pills. I think in total, it took 3 hours. I brought a book, though! I think weekday evenings are less busy, especially if you come in right when they open. The doctor and nurses don’t really speak English beyond a few basic words/phrases and medical terms, but they offer paperwork in English. I felt I was ok with my so-so Japanese. The nurses, staff, and doctors were very kind. The place itself is clean, but a little cold (too much AC >

I went here for almost 2 years. We communicated in a mix of English and Japanese. Their English is not good, but they have bigger problems. They almost never explained things in detail, have a rotation of doctors so you hardly ever see the same person and I felt like a piece of sushi on a conveyor belt, the costs of exams, tests, and things are not clear, and the wait time is long- more than hour every time. The last straw for me was when I went for consultation about IVF, and although I shouldn't have started the injections because it was 4 days after my period started (you need to start on your first day), the doctor said it was fine. I would've missed almost half the necessary injections, which decreases your chances of producing quality eggs. I talked to 3-4 other doctors, and they all agreed that at most you can miss 1-2 injections. I realized that they were lying, and don't care if you can't produce quality eggs, because then you then would have to come back and spend more money. They're just playing with your money and time. Please avoid this clinic if you can. For regular check-up, maybe they would be ok, but for fertility problems I definitely regret going there. Besides that, they also order outdated tests for researching fertility problems, like the Huner test, and used outdated fertility drugs, like the nasal spray. I also had a uterus x-ray, and they didn't provide even an aspirin, even though it is EXTREMELY painful.

No issues, but beware the occasional hour+ wait times. I haven't visited any other ob/gyn in Japan, but all the horror stories about Japanese gynecologists' awful treatment of women were not true for me personally here. Nurses are courteous, the systems are efficient enough, and the office is clean and centrally located. Birth control pills are not covered by any health insurance and will cost a pretty penny. Japan has a long way to go with regard to women's health policies, but Oak Umeda was all right. They speak Japanese but have paperwork in English.

I graduated from this clinic with the first child in half a year since I started hospital in 2019. All the female doctors consulted, so I was able to go through stress-free fertility treatments without stress. After pregnancy, you can have a pregnancy check up to 6 days a week. Sumiyoshi's main hospital is far from the city center and there are many male doctors, so I was taken care of by tubal angiography, etc. I felt a lot of problems, such as being guided to the doctor's office and poorly responding to my husband. On the other hand, this Oak Umeda is located in Kitashinchi near Umeda, so there is no stress from going to the hospital, and I think the nurses and teachers are very kind and polite. There are critical reviews such as the receptionist being unfriendly and the teachers being unfriendly and unexplained, The receptionist is usually available, and the teachers will be able to provide timely explanations if they have any questions or concerns. Since it is a medical institution that handles everything from the early timing of fertility to advanced in vitro fertilization, I think it will be difficult to match the knowledge of each patient. This also requires studying as such. It is relatively free on weekday mornings and noon, so you can see it very carefully, but on Friday evenings and Saturday mornings it is very crowded and the teachers are so busy. I'm looking at 30 people waiting alone. If you want to ask questions and talk carefully, if you allow time, you can go on weekday mornings or afternoons. The famous F teacher is cool at first glance, but since he has a long history of infertility treatment and has a proven track record, I was relieved to see him with confidence and accuracy from his career. Dr. H was very close to the feeling of a female doctor in THE Osaka, and even when he was worried about the side effects of HCG injections, `` If you get pregnant and graduate from this clinic, this is the most important thing. "I pressed my back." I was worried about the possibility of HCG injections going through the menstrual cycle, but if there was no action of that HCG, there may have been no pregnancy. Mr. K, who specializes in infertility, took care of me after pregnancy and looked at the baby carefully with an echo every time, and I felt very happy with the words "It's going well." I think this is a good hospital with reliable teachers. In particular, it is easy to go to those who are going to take infertility treatment from now on, I think that it is a low-priced, low-priced entrance, so I recommend you to visit first.
