Abe Visiting Hospital For 'follow - Up Consultation'
Japan's Prime Minister Abe Shinzo is visiting a hospital in Tokyo again on Monday. One of his secretaries says it is a follow-up visit scheduled after a one-day checkup Abe underwent a week earlier.
Abe arrived at Keio University Hospital in Shinjuku Ward around 10 a.m.
The secretary says the prime minister was told by a doctor during the checkup to visit again a week later.
Abe is believed to be receiving the results of that examination.
Abe told reporters last Wednesday, when he returned to work, that he underwent the one-day checkup to make doubly sure he would be in perfect condition after his summer holiday.
