Furukawa Medical Clinic
Furukawa Medical Clinic is a dermatology practice in Meguro, one of Tokyo’s more residential central wards with solid train access. The clinic handles the standard range of skin concerns you’d bring to a dermatologist — acne, eczema, rashes, mole checks, and similar conditions.
English is listed as basic, so expect communication to be limited. Simple written notes or a translation app will help move things along, and coming prepared with a written description of your symptoms in Japanese is a practical move. Complex conversations about treatment options or diagnosis nuances will likely require extra effort on your part.
No patient reviews are on record yet, so there’s no community feedback to draw from about wait times, bedside manner, or how well staff handle foreign patients in practice. The clinic does have a website, which is worth checking before your visit for hours and any appointment booking options, though it will likely be in Japanese. For straightforward skin issues where communication demands are lower, it’s a reasonable option to consider in the Meguro area.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback points to a calm, unhurried clinic where the dermatologist takes time to explain conditions and treatment options — unusual for a busy Tokyo skin clinic. Wait times are generally manageable, especially outside peak morning hours. The atmosphere is quiet and local rather than clinica
