We are pleased to announce that I have been awarded the “Order of the Rising Sun, Gold Rays with Neck Ribbon” in the Spring 2026 Decorations.
This honor recognizes my long-standing contributions to the advancement of regional healthcare, and I am deeply humbled to receive it.

I strongly feel that this award is not the result of my efforts alone, but rather the collective dedication of each and every staff member who works tirelessly for our patients every day, as well as the warm support of our patients and the local community who continue to place their trust in our hospital.
I have accepted this decoration as an honor “shared with our staff and with the community we serve.”

We will continue to work together to provide even better medical care and to remain a healthcare institution trusted by the community.
