Yowai Hospital
About
Yowa Hospital, located in Kamikoto, Yonago City, Tottori Prefecture, was established in 1930 as the "Yonago Brain Hospital" and is the longest-standing psychiatric hospital in the Sanin region. Operated by the medical corporation Yowakai, the hospital offers departments in psychiatry, neurology, rehabilitation medicine, plastic surgery, and internal medicine. Under the philosophy of "rehabilitation of mind and body," the hospital practices comprehensive rehabilitation built on three pillars: mental care, dementia care, and physical care. Outpatient hours are from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM, with public holidays and some weekends designated as closed days. The facility houses a medical fitness center called "CHAX," providing health promotion programs integrated with medical care. A café and bakery called "APLICO" is also located on the premises, creating a welcoming space for patients and local residents alike. The facility is equipped with parking and barrier-free amenities, and offers services in English as well as credit card and electronic payment options. As part of the broader Yowakai Group, which delivers a wide range of medical, nursing, and welfare services, the hospital serves as a community hub for home care and provides comprehensive rehabilitation support.
