Hiroshima University Hospital, the only university hospital in Hiroshima Prefecture and an advanced treatment hospital, provides higher-level and highly specialized medical services and also supports a new advanced medical treatment.
We mainly accept those who need to receive treatments that require advanced and highly specialized medical services, such as severe and serious injury and special diseases, by a request from your family doctor or nearby local clinic. Because of this, we advise you to bring a medical referral letter.

NOTES:
If you are a new patient without a medical referral letter or you have a medical referral letter without our hospital name “Hiroshima University Hospital (広島大学病院)” as an addressee, a fee called SENTEI RYOYOHI in the amount of 13,200 yen (medical)/5,500 yen (dental) will be charged in addition to the first visit fee.
For more information about “SENTEI RYOYOHI,” please see the following.
