Staff Introduction
Message
The various problems that women face vary greatly depending on their stage in life. The role of an obstetrician/gynecologist is to protect women's health. We aim to provide support that can be applied to our patients’ next stages of life, rather than merely solving problems on a case-by-case basis. We value careful explanation and discussion so that patients can understand their own problems independently. Please do not hesitate to express your concerns and opinions. We also collaborate with St. Luke's International Hospital for procedures that are difficult to perform at the clinic.
In this way, we will provide seamless medical care for women's health concerns. My own specialty is gynecological cancer. In particular, I focus on cancer prevention (cancer screening and follow-ups) and mental and physical support for women who have experienced cancer (cancer survivor support). I hope to help not only uterine and ovarian cancer survivors, but also those with women-specific concerns after experiencing other types of cancer.

I have been involved in the diagnosis, treatment, education, and research of gynecological cancer for about 30 years as a gynecological oncologist and cytologist in the Department of Gynecology, the Department of Cytology, the School of Cytotechnology, and the Cancer Precision Medicine Center at Cancer Institute Hospital, a hospital specializing in cancer treatment. As a women's health care specialist, I have also provided hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and other treatments for menopausal symptoms (ovarian dysfunction due to surgical menopause) that occur after gynecological cancer treatment (after ovary removal) to improve the quality of life of women who have experienced cancer.
At MediLocus, I would like to utilize my established expertise to help women solve various health problems during their different life stages. I will also provide easy-to-understand explanations to help women understand their own bodies and acquire the health literacy to manage their own health.
