Fuchu Asakura Clinic

Fuchu Asakura Clinic is a dermatology practice in Fuchu, a residential city in western Tokyo — about 30 minutes from Shinjuku on the Keio Line. It handles the standard dermatology workload: acne, eczema, rashes, skin allergies, and chronic skin conditions.

Their website has some English content, which is a decent sign, but don’t expect a fully bilingual operation when you walk in. Staff English is unconfirmed, so bring a translation app or a Japanese-speaking friend if your condition is complicated. For straightforward issues where you can point at a rash and show a photo, you’ll probably get through fine.

Fuchu is not a heavily expat-populated area, so this isn’t a clinic built around international patients — it’s a neighborhood dermatology clinic that happens to have some English online presence. That said, Japanese dermatology clinics tend to be efficient and appointment-focused, so the experience itself is usually smooth even with a language gap.
