Background of the Service
Many people suffer from hay fever and it is now called a “national disease. The symptoms can have a significant impact on daily life, such as work and household chores, as they impair concentration and judgment. On the other hand, many hay fever sufferers say that they are too busy to take time to go to the hospital, or that they are not sure whether their symptoms are caused by a cold or hay fever, which may lead to severe symptoms because they do not have sufficient opportunities to take measures and receive treatment based on their own symptoms.

In order to address the background and issues unique to hay fever, we have formed a “Hay Fever Prevention Team” consisting of medical specialists with a wealth of knowledge and experience in hay fever, and have launched an online hay fever prevention support service “Hay Fever Doctor™” to help people with hay fever-related problems take the necessary actions to prevent and treat hay fever at the right time. The online hay fever countermeasure support service “Hay Fever Doctor™” is now available.

In addition, he operates one gastroenterology clinic in Tokyo, for a total of eight clinics.

＜Message from Dr. Hitoshi Umeoka, Team Leader
In my contact with many hay fever patients, I have always conveyed the importance of early countermeasures and treatment based on their own symptoms, but it is quite difficult for patients to put such measures into practice by themselves in their busy daily lives. We formed the “Hay Fever Prevention Team” together with doctors who feel the same challenge and think about the future of hay fever countermeasures, and were involved in the planning and development of Hay Fever Doctor™.
For example, if we can have contact with patients not only in real life but also online, even while they are not in the doctor’s office, we can grasp their symptoms in a timely manner and provide them with appropriate support. Hay fever doctor™ can provide support for countermeasures and treatment based on patients’ symptoms through various functions such as symptom checks and a dedicated concierge, creating a contact point with patients while they are away from the office, which has not been possible until now. In addition, patients who are unable to visit the hospital despite suffering from symptoms due to work, housework, and childcare can receive early prescriptions through online medical services.
With the support of Hay Fever Doctor™, we believe that many hay fever patients will be able to start and continue their countermeasures and treatment early with ease and get through the hay fever season with ease. Let’s get through the hay fever season, which will soon be in full swing, with Hay Fever Doctor™.
