In particular, we boast some of the best surgical results in Japan for brain tumors, facial spasms, trigeminal neuralgia, Parkinson's disease, and tremors, and we also maintain a high level of treatment for cerebrovascular disorders and spinal cord diseases.The treating physicians are certified as specialists and instructors by the Japan Neurosurgical Society, and are also qualified in each of the following specialized fields: stroke, endovascular treatment, spinal cord surgery, neuroendoscopy, stereotactic and functional neurosurgery, and neurodecompression (microvascular decompression).
We are also equipped with the latest advanced facilities, from diagnostic imaging to treatment equipment, and provide care to patients requiring severe medical treatment in specialized wards such as the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and Stroke Care Unit (SCU).
We accept consultations regarding treatment, especially for specialized content, by appointment. We also provide consultations for second opinions (Visit・online) are also accepted. Please feel free to contact us.
Characteristics and Initiatives

Our stroke specialists provide acute treatment, including thrombolytic therapy and thrombectomy, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Certified as a "Primary Stroke Center" by the Japan Stroke Society, we have four specialists from the Japanese Society of Neuroendovascular Therapy on staff, and are able to perform endovascular treatment (catheterization) at all times. This is a comprehensive stroke center that provides drug therapy, endovascular treatment, and craniotomy.

We use catheters to perform endovascular treatments such as thrombectomy for cerebral infarction, coil embolization for cerebral aneurysms, and stent placement for carotid artery stenosis. Our hospital actively performs these treatments.
