History
Although the history of Dokkyo Medical University is not long, its parent university Dokkyo Gakuen was established in Tokyo in 1883 as the Doitsugaku Kyokai Gakko under the sponsorship of Nishi Amane, Yamagata Aritomo, and Katsura Taro. Doitsugaku Kyokai Gakko later became Dokkyo Gakuen. After World War II, Dokkyo Gakuen established a junior and senior high school in 1946.
In 1964, Dokkyo Gakuen established Dokkyo University in Saitama for its 80-year anniversary. Subsequently, Dokkyo Gakuen established a medical school, Dokkyo Medical University in 1973 in Mibu, Tochigi. Its main hospital and Koshigaya Hospital of Dokkyo Medical School are the center of clinical medicine in northern area of Kanto. The Faculty of Medicine was beginning to play the main role in the Dokkyo University, which resulted in the change of the school's name from Dokkyo University School of Medicine to Dokkyo Medical University in 2007.
It was founded by Minato Seki.
