Aoyama Akashi Clinic
Aoyama Akashi Clinic sits in a low-key residential stretch of Minami-Aoyama — not the flashy boutique end, but the quieter side near Roppongi. It’s a small internal medicine clinic, the kind you go to for checkups, chronic condition management, lifestyle disease stuff, or when you’re not sure what’s wrong and need someone to figure it out.
The clinic has some English on its website, which is a decent sign — but don’t assume that means fluent English-speaking staff at the desk. Reality is unclear. If your Japanese is minimal, bring a translation app or a Japanese-speaking friend for anything complicated. For simpler visits, you might get by. This is a neighborhood clinic, not an expat-specialist setup, so manage expectations accordingly.
That said, Minami-Aoyama has a solid expat presence, so clinics in this area tend to have at least some experience with non-Japanese patients. Worth calling ahead to test the waters before you show up.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback is limited in English-language sources, which itself tells you something — this clinic skews local. Those who have visited describe it as a small, calm practice without long waits typical of bigger hospitals. The doctor appears thorough and unhurried, which is a genuine plus in Tokyo’s often rushed clinic culture. Don’t expect a large team or specialist equipment on-site. It’s a solid neighborhood GP-style setup, not a multi-department facility.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
