Tenshi Hospital
About
Tenshi Hospital is located in Higashi-ku, Sapporo, Hokkaido, conveniently situated just a 3-minute walk from Kita 13-jo Higashi Station on the Subway Toho Line and a 5-minute drive from the north exit of JR Sapporo Station. The hospital plays a particularly significant role in regional healthcare through its Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), which became the first in Hokkaido to receive approval in February 1986. Now expanded to 15 beds, the NICU operates alongside an adjacent 11-bed GCU (Growing Care Unit) as a Perinatal Mother and Child Center, providing advanced perinatal care. Key features of the NICU include extensive experience in managing multiple pregnancies—primarily twins—and the capacity to accept patients requiring neonatal gastrointestinal surgery from the southern and eastern regions of Hokkaido on a 365-day, 24-hour basis. The hospital also houses a Clinical Genetics Center, offering specialized consultations and treatment for congenital anomalies and hereditary diseases. With English-speaking staff available, acceptance of credit cards, debit cards, and electronic payments, as well as paid parking and fully barrier-free facilities, the hospital offers a safe and accessible environment for patients and their families.
