Medical tourism
Since 2008, our company is involved in organization ofindividual health care toursinJapan. One-time events, which began just as the provision of medical care for friends and colleagues - within two years weretransformed into an independent direction.
What our potential customers need to know ?
Japanese medicine is one of the most powerful on the planet and indeed, in several directions is leading, for example is such areasarea asmicrosurgery,operations on the heartandblood vessels, cancer treatment, angioplasty. Important achievement of Japanese medicine is accurate diagnosis in short time. This is definitely one of the reasons why lifetime in Japan is among the longest, and by some estimates - the longest in the world. Actually, it seems to us quite unreasonable to list all the advantages of Japanese medicine, we can only state the axiom - the level of development of Japanese health care in many areas superior to the best European standards.
Who is coming to us?
There are patients, that came to us, which can be roughly divided into two types.
The firsttype. People, which arrivefor urgent reasons: surgical interventionis required, the lack of quality care in their hometown, the lack of an accurate diagnosis, health deterioration in spite ofintensive care, the lack of effective methods of treatment of a rare disease. That is, people who are in a situation where all themedicalmethods at home have been exhaustedwithno improvement, the improvementcan be hardly achievedin the long term and they need help as soon as possible.
The secondtype. Peoplewho think about their health and take care of it, who conduct annual checkups. In general, these are people who have recognizedlong beforethat health is the most important asset in life and who pass in2-3 days full medical checkupand would not mindspend remaining days on “tourism Japan".
Why are we doing this?
For two reasons.
It seems that in today's world where the boundaries are very relativepeople should have the choice to undergo treatment and examination of his own body in their home country or in a state that is famous for its medicine and quality of life. Despite the fact that for us this projecthas aimto extract a reasonable profit, we are able to help so many sick people find health and prevent illnessesbyearly diagnose. Our mission in this regard is very simple - all the latest achievements in the field of medicine should be used not onlybyJapanese but also bycitizensof other countries, because ifto callthings by their names and drop the false modesty, the level of medicine and medical culture in Japan islimitless and sometimes close to unreal. We can not guarantee you a miracle, but sometimes, you can count on it.
The second reason is that Japan is a breathtakingly beautiful countryand it would be unforgivable to find time forhealth and do not seebeauty for whichpeople cometo this amazing country from all over the world. And here, we can guarantee you for sure - no one went away disappointed.
Do you really can help in all areas?
Yes, we do. We have the right to appeal inevery medical institution in Japan of ourchoice (or customer's choice) and receive quality treatment. In fact, we are limitedonly byJapanese medicine acin all meanings of this word.
Is it true that in Japan hospitalsno one takes,tosay, gifts in any form?
This is an absolute, one hundred percent true.
A doctor in Japanis a well provided person who isrespected in society, who receivessalaryfrom the state (if working in a municipal hospital) or from a private clinic, but never, not under any circumstances, the degree ofhisincome dependson the number of patients. Doctorisfar from the money and cash, and has nothing to do with it. It is impossible to imagine a situation that doctoror evennurse takes any kind of gift.Itis impossible in a Japanese hospital. Revenue of the staff is not directly related to the number of patients. Nobody will not take ayen from you more than official price. For Japanese mentality is an impossible situation, axiom, which requires no proof, but which for some reasonit is difficult to accept forour guests. It is easier to understand if we take into account the fact that in the entire country no one takes tips: from taxi drivers to the porters at the hotel. Sometimes, ifyou arelucky, you canmanage to present some small souvenir from yourcountry.
How to start and how much does it cost?
We very deliberately do notdetailall the programs and options. Each of our guest - is a different story with its own peculiarities, itsownprogram of visitand thus its cost. Common templates can not be determined. We had here customers, that came here alone or withentire family. You should start withwith aletter of request to the address artur@shiawasedo.co.jp where, please, infree-form outlineyourtasks for us, or just yourphone number with an indication ofconvinienttime to talk with you, by which wecan find you and discuss all the issuesof your coming stay.
