Japanese Red Cross Omori Hospital

The Department of Gastroenterology at Japanese Red Cross Omori Hospital, a core regional hospital located in Ota Ward, Tokyo, provides care for a wide range of digestive disorders, from diseases of the esophagus, stomach, and colon to hepatobiliary-pancreatic disease. In addition to general gastroenterology care, the department actively performs advanced endoscopic procedures such as ESD, ERCP, and EUS, serving both community healthcare and specialized medical needs.
