Dr. Norihiro Komiyama,Profile
There are many things that I am interested in. Above all, it is in “small animal veterinary medicine,” my area of expertise, that I have focused a great deal of passion.
Concerning the practice of veterinary medicine, a motto of “Constant reform, improvement, and innovation,” is one that I believe should be passed through society at various opportunities, and continue to be transmitted throughout our lifetime. Through this way of thinking, I believe that the relationship between humans and animals can become better, and if I can contribute even just that much to society, I will be happy.
-Dr. Norihiro Komiyama, February 1, 2010
I am a veterinarian practicing in Tokyo. After graduating from veterinary school, I continued my studies in a graduate program. After completion, I worked as a researcher, spent some time in America, and in 1972, I opened a veterinary clinic in Musashino, Tokyo.
As a result of over forty years of small animal clinical experience, I had the privilege of learning a great deal. The experience has enriched my mind and soul, contributing to the knowledge that I have today.
I am interested in many things. Above all, it is in “small animal veterinary medicine,” my area of expertise, that I have focused a great deal of passion.
I believe that the knowledge and techniques regarding small animal veterinary medicine should be passed along to society at every possible chance. As such, what I continually aim for is: constant reform, improvement, and innovation. I believe this will lead to an improved relationship between humans and animals, which, even if small, would be a contribution to society.
