About the clinic

Minori Clinic in Kagoshima does not give chemotherapy itself but supports patients receiving it elsewhere with Kampo, acupuncture and moxibustion to reduce side effects. It partners with Kibou-no-Mori Clinic (Sendai) for immune-cell therapy and with Cell-Medicine for the autologous cancer vaccine, applying strict eligibility criteria. Evening second-opinion appointments aim to inform rather than steer patients.
