History
Opened 1984

Maidashi-Kyūdaibyōinmae Station (馬出九大病院前駅 Maidashi-kyūdai-byōin-mae-eki?) is a subway station on the Fukuoka City Subway Hakozaki Line in Fukuoka, Fukuoka, Japan.

The station's name, which is the longest for a Japan subway station, means "Front of Kyushu University Hospital in Maidashi". Chiyo-Kenchōguchi Station is, however, closer to the hospital. Maidashi-kyūdai byōin mae is the station closest to the Prefectural Government office. The symbol on the sign is a dove, representing peace and nursing (a reference to the nearby hospital).

The station consists of one island platform located in the second basement, serving two tracks.

The station opened on 27 April 1984 as a terminus of the subway line.
