After making a serious mistake in his work in Tokyo, talented surgeon Goto Kensuke is invited to take charge of the only clinic on the small island of Yonaguni, Okinawa. It is difficult to get competent doctors to serve on this remote island, and the islanders are now used to traveling for hours via boat for proper medical care. Despite seeming weak and unreliable (he gets very seasick, and does not have a driving license), he wins over the skeptical islanders with his skill and dedication. Some children of the island make a flag for his clinic, but get his name wrong. Thereafter he is known by all as Koto.
Dr. Koto's Clinic recounts the struggles of the young doctor Kensuke Goto who puts all his passion into medical treatment on one of Japan's distant islands while insisting on the preciousness of life. This is a brand new Dr. Koto installment with an episode involving another Dr. Koto: Shinichi Mikami.
A year has now passed since the arrival of the young physician Kensuke Goto (Dr. Koto) on Shikina Island, the southernmost island of the Japanese archipelago, the clinic he runs together with Ayaka and Wada is doing well. Ayaka's parents are now considering the possibility of Ayaka's marrying Dr. Koto, with the boss of the local fishermen involved in the situation.It's around this time that the island has its festival to pray for a good fishing catch, which results in several emergency cases at the clinic. After a very busy day at the clinic, Ayaka returns home, only to find that her mother has collapsed.
