The University of Tokyo Hospital (東京大学医学部附属病院, Tōkyō daigaku igakubu fuzoku byōin) is an academic health science centre and tertiary referral hospital located in Bunkyō, Tokyo, Japan. The hospital is part of the University of Tokyo's Faculty of Medicine. It is one of the country's fifteen core clinical research hospitals, which are hospitals that also serve as medical research centres with large government grants.[1]
It has consistently been ranked as the best hospital in the country in several hospital rankings. Newsweek's World's Best Hospitals 2023 ranks it 17th in the world, 2nd in Asia, and 1st in Japan.[2] Notably, it serves as the primary hospital for the Imperial Family of Japan, with both the current emperor and the emperor emeritus having undergone major operations there.[3][4]
