Hayashi ityounaikageka clinic
Hayashi Clinic sits on the 7th floor of Sunshine 60 — that massive tower in Higashi-Ikebukuro that you can see from basically anywhere in the neighborhood. Despite the name referencing gastroenterology and surgery, this clinic handles dermatology, which is worth knowing before you show up expecting a stomach scope.
The Sunshine 60 location is genuinely convenient — Ikebukuro Station is a short walk, and the building has good signage. The clinic has some English content on its website, which is a decent sign, but whether that translates to smooth English communication at reception is not confirmed. Bring a translation app as backup.
For expats dealing with skin issues in Tokyo, this is a reasonable option to explore given the central location. Just call ahead or use the website contact form to gauge how the English situation actually plays out before booking.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback specific to this clinic is limited in English-language sources. The Sunshine 60 location means you’re in a busy commercial building, so expect a more clinical, urban feel rather than a quiet neighborhood practice. The gastroenterology-focused branding can cause confusion — double-check you’re booked into the right department. No strong pattern of complaints or praise to report from English-speaking patients specifically.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
