We do what we do because, ultimately, we care about our patients. We strive: for every couple to be able to have a child, and for every man and woman to leave with renewed confidence and self-esteem. Every child that our patients bring into the world reminds us of the importance of what we do.
Dr. Kanto and all of us at the Kanto clinic have a vision for the future, one that embodies quality care for all, regardless of origin and language. It is a sad fact about Japan that medical caregivers are often unable to communicate and often unable to provide the best of their abilities to non-Japanese patients. We believe that we are doing our part to improve this, by maintaining our English website in addition to our Japanese website, and by providing English language lessons to our staff.
We may not be able to communicate 100% perfectly in English every step of the way, but we are committed to doing our best for you. Whether it is an issue related to urology, or related to your health in general, we aim to provide you the same high standard of care that we expect of ourselves for each and every patient that comes into our clinic.
