ASAKAWA Clinic
ASAKAWA Clinic is a neighborhood internal medicine clinic in Morishita, Koto Ward — a quieter residential pocket of east Tokyo that most expats don’t end up in unless they actually live nearby. It handles the everyday stuff: checkups, chronic condition management, colds that won’t quit, referrals when something needs a specialist. The website has some English-language content, which is a decent sign, but don’t take that to mean you’ll walk in and have a smooth English conversation at the front desk. Realistically, this is a Japanese-first clinic that may have some English capacity, but you’d want to call ahead or bring a translation app just in case. Good option if you’re in Koto Ward and need a reliable GP-style clinic close to home. Not a clinic you’d cross the city for if English support is your priority.
Patient Feedback
No large volume of English-language reviews to pull from, which itself tells you something — this clinic serves a mostly Japanese-speaking local patient base. General feedback points to a straightforward neighborhood clinic: not fancy, not rushed, reasonably thorough for routine consultations. Wait times appear typical for a small Tokyo clinic — expect 20 to 40 minutes during busy hours. The vibe is quiet and functional, not polished. Doctors seem to take their time once you’re in the room.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
