Ear, Nose and Throat

.
Having suffered from clogged up ears for a couple of days now and trying to get the smear out myself with cotton buds and even a toothpick (how stupid can you get and needless to say to no avail) I decided it was time for a visit to a clinic. Asked at the local pharmacy and they directed me to Dr. Egami who runs the ear, nose and throat clinic, jibi inkó ka 耳鼻咽喉科 in Sumiyoshi, an area just up from the University. In a very modern and sleek building he looks at the patients and tells them what's wrong and while examining you (in my case the ears) you can watch on a TV screen what he is doing......... an innovative and learning experience indeed. Never knew that one's ear can hold so much stuff.
He managed to clean out the left ear but the right one was so clogged up that I have to come back for another appointment next Saturday at 09.00 am. Had to get some drops to loosen the rest up or to liquidify it as he so nicely put it.......
According to Chris this is way Too Much Detail (TMD), but the thing is I can hear again and you know me...just love to share....

The mere 10 minutes or less he spends on you will set you back an average of ￥4.500 so no wonder he can have his own clinic designed and styled by a top architect....

The pictures are of course from his own website.
