Area Around “Nagaretani Internal Medicine Clinic”

↑ To the left when facing the clinic is “Miyagawa Eye Clinic,” and to the right, across a narrow lane and inside Kobe City, is “Jukusei Yakiniku Ichiban Higashinada.”

↑ If you head this way, east, you’ll find places like “Kikuya Furniture,” “Tsuchiya Liquor Store,” and “Ashiya KAWASAKI.”

↑ If you go the opposite way, west, you’ll immediately enter Kobe City, where you’ll find “Washoku Sato Higashinada” and the “Selva Konan Yamate” shopping mall.

Final Thoughts
According to the Ashiya Medical Association website, there seem to be 47 internal medicine hospitals and clinics in the city. Since Tsuchicho no longer has an internal medicine clinic, residents will likely need to visit one in neighboring Kawanishicho or Higashinada Ward.
