I graduated Tokyo Medical and Dental University (TMDU) in 2000.
After finishing 2-year junior resident program of urology division in TMDU, I worked at Tobu Chiiki Hospital in Tokyo as a general urologist for 2 years.
Then, I returned TMDU, and attended graduate school in 2005.
I had studied perioperative infection and earned doctoral degree in 2009.
Now, my clinical focus is on the pelvic reconstructive surgery. Other interests include the renal function after urological surgery and minimally invasive urological surgery.
