Dr. Stein's Current Consultations in Japan


I am Gerald H. Stein, MD, FACP. My clinical teaching in Japan started in December 1992. For 7.5 years I instructed residents and visiting medical students at Kameda Medical Center, Kamogawa, Chiba, Japan, a community based teaching hospital, teaching basic clinical skills, lecturing to residents and consulting with staff physicians about general internal medicine topics.


My appointment was as director of medical education and professor-in-residence. During those many years, I was pleased to be invited to teach and consult usually once monthly at several other distinguished academic-oriented hospitals in Japan.


Additionally I  completed a 5 month assignment for the University of Hawaii at their affiliate Okinawa Chubu Hospital, ending in June 2000, when I returned to my home in Gainesville Florida USA.


From 2000 to 2019, I returned to Japan two times yearly to teach and consult at many medical universities and community teaching hospitals. Most recently 2019/06 I led PBL seminars at Chubu Rosai Hospital, Nagoya 2nd Red Cross Hospital, Shonan Kamakura Hospital, Kariya Toyota Hospital, Toyota Memorial Hospital, Kyoto Min-iren Chuo Hospital, Daido Hospital, Nagoya Memorial Hospital, and was an invited lecturer at the annual meeting of the American College of Physicians-Japan Chapter, where I received the Sakura Award.

I had been faculty in Tokyo at the Noguchi Medical Research Institute's medical education seminars and externship selection programs since 11/2001, most recently 12/2010; summer, 2011,  I served as faculty for the Noguchi ‘Summer Medical School,’ held at Juntendo Medical University. Lastly I had conducted infectious diseases emergencies lectures with Dr. Aoki Makoto twice yearly from 2005 to 2016 when I consult at Nagoya Chubu Rosai Hospital.

The Covid-19 pandemic international travel restrictions forced me to cancel my June 2000 Japanese teaching tour. At the kind invitation of Dr, Nobu Marui, Nagoya Chubu Rosai Hospital, I resumed my clinical teaching via Zoom videoconferences, from my home office to this excellent community teaching hospital. Subsequently, I received more invitations for Zoom teaching. Please access my current teaching schedule on my Home Page.


In the interim I enjoy attending my weekly Zoom lectures in many clinical departments at the College of Medicine, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida. In addition I serve as physician manuscript reviewer to several international medical journals.
