Dadan Dan

They don't care about the patients! I made an appointment to have the test done, but I got a call two days before the test saying that the hospital and the testing institution hadn't been able to agree on a price and the test had to be cancelled. What the heck? This hospital must be full of people who can't do their jobs.

?

The doctors in the internal medicine department change frequently, and in the case of the professor, his arrogant and contemptuous attitude and language towards patients always makes me angry. Appointment dates and times are often changed, which is a problem.

Shopping Manager

This hospital is more political than medical, and provides medical care for patients. The doctors are not the type who pursue their work with passion.
It is not suitable if you are looking for high-level medical care. It only provides mid-level care.

M. T. I. H.

When the school opened in the 1970s, the pass rate for the first class of students for the national medical exam was around 20%. Because those who failed continued to take the exam every year, even ten years later, the pass rate was in the …

????

I don't recommend it. I went to an ENT specialist for nose surgery, which was supposed to be performed under local anesthesia at a private hospital, but perhaps because it was nearing the end of the year, Professor M indirectly avoided the …

????

It's horrible. I went to the doctor at 9am and they made me wait until noon. If there's nothing the patient can do, they can do whatever they want. I wish this hospital would just go out of business. It's better not to go to this hospital.

According to the lawsuit, Shibuya collapsed after dehydrating in a sauna in January 2021 and was hospitalized at the university hospital for about a week. Suspected of cognitive decline, tests confirmed cerebral atrophy. He continued to …

The dental and oral surgery department is the worst. I trusted them because they were a university hospital, but the pain didn't go away, so I went to another dentist. An X-ray revealed the cause. The dental school at the university …

KENICHI FUJISAKU

I have been hospitalized for four weeks due to a neurological illness that suddenly left me almost completely paralyzed. I am deeply moved by the sincere and courteous treatment and dedicated support of each and every staff member, …

maririnko s

Since it is a large hospital, it depends on the department and doctor, so I think it may not suit some people. Parking fees for patients are 100 yen when you insert your patient card into the payment machine, and it is not free.

???

The way they treated me right from the first visit was completely different!
The consideration they showed to patients right from the initial consultation was completely different from what I saw at Kanazawa University! …

I drove my mother from Kanazawa to her for tumor surgery.
Her appointment was at 12:30 and she'd been told the surgery would last about 20 minutes, so I thought it would be over by 2 PM, but it turned out it actually …

edo

I sometimes visit here for follow-up health checkups. (Repeated exams are treated as a referral, so there's no initial consultation fee.)
I see a different doctor each time, but they're always friendly and explain …

[September 27, 2025] I went to the Uchinada Festival for the first time in several years. I had a lot of fun with the club quiz competition, band performances, and food stalls.

?????

There are security guards, building staff, and cleaning staff all assigned to specific areas.
The receptionists in each department are also very kind, and I think their …

You can receive cutting-edge medical care. I believe the cutting-edge medical facilities are always functioning. They saved my life.

????

Depending on the day, different delicious bakeries come in, and it seems that some people come specifically to try these bakeries!

???

The details of my illness and surgery were explained to me in an easy-to-understand manner. The nurses were also very kind.

??

Even if you make a reservation, it's normal to wait an hour. When I was made to wait for three hours, I decided to leave.

?????

The nurses at the 7th floor East Station are all very nice! I was able to receive treatment with peace of mind.

????

It's now an even better hospital than Kanazawa University. It's like a first-class hotel.

????

The view was great, but the quality of the people was not so good.

???

My daughter will be in your care for the next six years.

???

I just had business at my previous Taniguchi Eye Clinic.

The staff were very kind and helpful, thank you

Because it's a university hospital.

Religion snapshot

Religion in Japan is manifested primarily in Shinto and in Buddhism, the two main faiths, which Japanese people often practice simultaneously. Syncretic combinations of both, known generally as shinbutsu-shūgō, are common; they represented Japan's dominant religion before the rise of State Shinto in the 19th century.
