OKAYAMA UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL

My name is Shinichi Toyooka, and I serve as the Deputy Director in charge of University Hospital Reform. As the healthcare landscape undergoes rapid change, university hospitals must also continue evolving. My mission is to ensure the highest quality medical care for patients while fostering an environment where medical professionals, staff, and students can work and learn with peace of mind.　
With your support, we will continue to reform Okayama University Hospital, ensuring its ongoing contribution to society. I appreciate your continued support and look forward to working together.

My name is Motoyuki Otsuka, Vice Director in charge of planning, general affairs, and international affairs.
I am committed to making Okayama University Hospital a place where patients feel even more secure and confident, by improving overall convenience and enhancing our international presence.
It has been over two years since I moved to Okayama, and I find myself supported by the region’s gentle atmosphere and the warmth of its people.
I don’t have any particular hobbies, but recently I’ve found comfort in quietly appreciating the beauty of Bizen ware pottery. Thank you for your continued support.

I am a vice director Hisashi Masuyama in charge of medical examination and disaster prevention. Our “Team OKADAI” will continue to make best efforts to provide advanced, safe and warm medical care for all patients. Amid various social changes, such as work style reform and the post-COVID era, I feel the importance of recognizing what is truly necessary.
During my business trips, I also make time to visit various museums and engage with authentic works to refine my sensibilities.

My name is Prof. Takuo KUBOKI, who is a vice director of this hospital in charge of the clinical dental section and dental research. I would not only like the clinical dental section to contribute to the local community, but also try to work hard to make our hospital famous in Japan by our dental research. Since medical-dental collaboration has been one of the advantages of our hospital, I would work hard to revive the activity again.
