In the field of respiratory medicine and allergy treatment, we treat patients with a broad range of diseases, such as lung cancer, pneumonia, bronchial asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), interstitial pneumonia, pulmonary fibrosis, and sleep apnea syndrome.
Our approaches are “patient-centered”, rather than “disease-centered”. We make efforts daily to provide medical service using cutting-edge technology, with the aim of establishing systems for compassionate and highly specialized community-based medicine, as well as clinically-oriented research.
