Department leadership

Head of Neurosurgery

A department head is an organizational role. “Chief physician” is a professional rank; the two are listed separately. Roles should be reconfirmed before a consultation.

Education & professional training

  • Graduated in clinical medicine from the Fourth Military Medical University in 1994; medical master’s degree in 1998 and doctorate in 2003 at the same university.

  • Clinical neurosurgical training at Japan’s National Center of Neurology and Psychiatry (2002–2003); visiting academic training at Yale School of Medicine (2014).

Only explicitly documented qualifications and training are included. A visiting appointment is not a degree.

Documented surgical & procedural experience

  • An official hospital report identifies him as the lead surgeon for a minimally invasive keyhole functional hemispheric disconnection procedure.

Diagnostic & treatment focus

  • Clinical focus includes epilepsy, brain tumors, pediatric neurological conditions, trigeminal neuralgia and hemifacial spasm.

Published procedure descriptions are not a complete operative log. Expertise is distinguished from documented experience; neither establishes suitability or outcomes for an individual patient.

Advanced care & documented cases

These are selected published accounts of clinical work. Each entry distinguishes the physician’s documented role from the wider team’s work. They are not outcome guarantees or a complete operative record.

Before arranging care

Confirm the clinician’s current hospital, role, specialty fit, consultation route, language arrangements and availability directly with the hospital. A public profile does not establish acceptance of your case or a relationship with YituCare.

How we coordinate specialist appointments

Clinical responsibility
