Fukase Yōshun (Japanese: 深瀬 洋春, 1834-1905) was a Japanese physician.
Biography
Fukase Yōshun was born in Hakodate as the eldest son of Fukase Kōsai Kazumoto (深瀬 鴻斉 一甫), a medical expert originally from the Yonezawa Domain in Dewa Province who moved to Hakodate in order to open a medical practice. His brother, Fukase Kōdō (深瀬 鴻堂), became the second director of the Hakodate Medical Center (箱館医学所, Hakodate igakujo) founded by Kurimoto Jō'un.
Fukase studied Western medicine in Edo under Satō Takanaka [ja].
In 1857, alarmed by an epidemic of smallpox spreading rapidly among the Ainu, the shogunate commanded a small team of physicians including Fukase and Kuwata Ryūsai to enter Ezo and carry out compulsory vaccination of the Ainu populace.
In his later years, Fukase returned to his hometown of Hakodate and served at the local medical outpost of the Kaitakushi. He died in 1905.
