Clinic History

In 1663, our family received the last name Sakabe
from the castle lord.
The great-grandson Kouji Sakabe (1775-1853)
would go on to make the household into a private clinician practice.
Inheriting this role,
Koujirou Sakabe (private clinician), Hidetatsu Sakabe (private clinician),
Toshiatsu Sakabe (private clinician), Hideo Sakabe (private clinician),
Toshio Sakabe (dental practitioner),
and then the 6th generation Yoshio Sakabe
(former honorary clinic director) have continued
as the heads of the family.

The 7th generation includes the current head of the clinic
and family Kazuo Sakabe and advisor
and university professor Kou Sakabe.
The past four or five generations can be considered modern medical professionals
as the present-day medical system was established just over 100 years ago.
