Hospital Where Patients Can Entrust Their Lives
We are committed to making every effort to protect the lives and health of our patients with the mission of protecting the lives and health of everyone, in accordance with the philosophy of Tokushukai as advocated by Dr. Torao Tokuda, the founder of Tokushukai: "All living beings are created equal," "A hospital where people can entrust their lives," and "Anybody in the society is to receive the best possible medical care in anywhere, at whenever necessary."
In 1980, the Tokushukai Group opened Chigasaki Tokushukai General Hospital, the first hospital in the Kanto region, and in 2012, the hospital was renamed Shonan Fujisawa Tokushukai Hospital and relocated to its current location. Our mission is to provide the best possible medical care to the people of the community by offering general outpatient services as well as various types of specialized outpatient services. Furthermore, we strive to provide preventive medicine and medical knowledge through comprehensive health checkups and public medical lectures. It is also a core clinical training facility that is accredited by various medical associations and accepts more than a dozen residents each year.

We have established a highly advanced and safe medical treatment and therapy system that includes a hybrid operating room, 320-slice CT, 3-Tesla MRI, radiation therapy equipment (Vasa, Novaris), robotic da Vinci surgery, and robotic spine surgery.
In addition to certification by the Japan Council for Quality Health Care “JCQHC,” we have also obtained certification by international health care accreditation “Joint Commission International.” We have also established a medical safety management system and ethics consulting system, provide medical safety training for our staff, and strive to keep up with and provide advanced technologies such as AI, robotics, and biotechnology in the medical field. We will also strive to improve the medical skills and attitudes of all staff members and work closely with the physicians at local clinics to earn the trust of our patients.
