  • Hyakunincho Alpha Clinic is a dermatology clinic tucked into the third floor of Mizuho Alpha Building in Hyakunincho, a neighborhood just north of Shinjuku Station that’s pretty well-connected and easy to reach. Skin issues are their thing — think general dermatology, likely covering acne, eczema, rashes, and the usual stuff that brings people to a derm.

    The clinic has some English content on their website, which is a decent sign, but don’t show up expecting a fully bilingual experience. Whether reception can hold a real conversation in English or you’ll be reaching for Google Translate mid-appointment is genuinely unclear. If your Japanese is nonexistent, bring a translation app and write down your symptoms beforehand. That prep goes a long way at clinics like this.

    It’s a private clinic setup, so expect a more focused visit than a big hospital — shorter waits, more direct access to a dermatologist. Shinjuku location means convenient access from a lot of directions.

    Patient Feedback

    Patient feedback on this clinic is limited in English-language spaces, so a clear picture is hard to pin down. Private dermatology clinics in this part of Shinjuku tend to run reasonably efficient appointments — you’re not waiting in a giant hospital queue. Expect a focused consult, a diagnosis, and a prescription if needed. Whether the doctor takes time to explain things thoroughly or keeps it brief likely depends on how busy the day is.

    English Language Proficiency

    The clinic has Japanese and some English-facing web content, which suggests they're at least aware of international patients. But confirmed English-speaking staff? That's not clear. Reception may have basic English, or they may not. If you're not comfortable in Japanese, bring a translation app — Google Translate's camera mode is useful for forms. Writing your symptoms down in Japanese before you arrive (use DeepL) will genuinely improve your experience and save everyone time.
