  • Dedicated OB/GYN specialist only
  • Near central Tokyo
  • Hiroo Minegishi Obstetrics & Gynecology Clinic sits on the 8th floor of a building in Minami-Azabu, deep in one of Tokyo’s quieter, more residential pockets of Minato ward. It’s a dedicated OB/GYN practice, so you’re not competing for appointment slots with people coming in for colds.

    The clinic has some English content on its website, which is a decent sign, but don’t assume you’ll walk in and have a smooth English conversation at the front desk. Come prepared with your Japanese health insurance card, key medical vocabulary written down, or a translation app loaded and ready. If you can manage basic Japanese or bring a bilingual friend, you’ll have a much easier time.

    This is a specialist clinic, so expect the visit to be focused and clinical rather than chatty. For expats living in Hiroo, Azabu, or nearby Minato neighborhoods, the location is genuinely convenient. Worth calling ahead to ask about English support before booking.

    Patient Feedback

    Patient feedback points to a focused, professional clinic rather than a warm and chatty one. Appointments tend to run on time, which matters when you’re navigating a medical visit in a second language. The doctor is reported to be thorough and direct. The clinic is small, so the waiting room doesn’t feel chaotic. Don’t expect a lot of hand-holding through paperwork — this is a Japanese clinic first.

    English Language Proficiency

    The website has some English content, which suggests awareness of international patients, but that doesn't guarantee English-speaking staff at reception or during consultations. The real situation is unclear without calling ahead. Bring a translation app, write down your symptoms and medical history in Japanese beforehand, or bring a Japanese-speaking friend. If you've managed other Japanese clinics before, you'll likely manage here too — but don't count on being surprised by fluent English.
