Cancer Counseling and Support Center

Keio University Hospital was designated as a regional cancer hospital by the Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare in March 2011. Our advanced cancer care continues to attract people from throughout the country.

The Cancer Counseling and Support Center was established to provide both cancer patients and their families with individual consultation, and also plays host to patient salons. The bi-monthly salons provide a place for patients and their families to meet with others and share their experiences. We also provide a broad range of health and medical information (diseases, examinations, nutrition, prescriptions, etc.) at the information corner and on the bulletin board found at the center.

Patient Salon

A patient salon is held approximately once every two months. Each salon has a theme, and important information related to that theme is provided. The salons are a chance for participants to communicate freely about their experiences and relieve any stress and anxiety they may have. We believes these salons can become an important part of long-term recuperation. For details please refer to the schedule below.
