Product overview

Medical Corporation Shinwakai (武田的和会) is a Japanese hospital group operating multiple specialty hospitals and clinics, unified by a core focus on neurosurgery, neurology, and related disciplines. The portfolio is organized around two main hospitals — 西島病院 (Nishijima Hospital), a 150-bed acute care facility in Numazu, Shizuoka offering neurosurgery, neurology, orthopedics, ophthalmology, cardiovascular medicine, anesthesiology, and rehabilitation alongside advanced diagnostic imaging (1.5T–3T MRI, 64-slice CT); and 野猿峠脳神経外科病院 (Yaentoge Neurosurgery Hospital), a 45-bed plus 7-ICU neurosurgery specialty hospital in Hachioji, Tokyo, which also operates a Gamma Knife radiosurgery unit. Supporting services include 脳ドック (brain dock/brain health screening) programs at both hospitals, spinal and spinal cord surgery (脊椎・脊髄外科), and 24-hour emergency care. The group traces its origins to the 1981 founding of 西島脳神経外科医院, became a medical corporation in 1994, and has since expanded to include subspecialty centers for brain, spinal cord, nerve, and cardiac diseases.
