Hospital & Rehabilitation Center

Keio University has a long, distinguished tradition in medical education, with practical training dating back to the founding of Keio University hospital in 1920. Keio has since established a number of medical organizations, all adhering to the original concept of care based on three fundamentals: technique, science, and humanity. The role of Keio University medical institutions is expected to grow steadily with Japan's rapidly aging population.

Established in 1920, 3 years after the founding of Keio University Medical School, Keio University Hospital is located on the Shinanomachi Campus in central Tokyo. A leading institution of Western-style medicine in Japan, the hospital draws on the talents of Japan's most distinguished and accomplished medical professionals, practitioners, and researchers. In 1987, the hospital was greatly expanded with a new 11-story wing housing ultra-modern facilities and equipment. Some 25 specialized clinics and 14 major examination clinics currently operate round the clock in this massive 1,072-bed general hospital, which also has fully equipped laboratory, research, and medical information divisions. A synergistic relationship between all of these facilities ensures the highest level of medical care.
