Coronavirus Countermeasures

Since the end of February, we have had in place measures for clinic disinfection,ventilation, and air purification. We ask all patients to disinfect their hands and check their temperature upon arrival at the reception desk.

Since the Coronavirus Emergency Declaration on April 7th, we have provided consultation by phone and we are currently developing an online consultation system.While the full online consultation system is under development, we are offering our foreign patients tele-video consultation via video chat applications.
