International Goodwill Hospital

International Goodwill Hospital is a general medicine facility in Yokohama’s Izumi Ward that presents a mixed experience for patients. While some doctors can communicate in basic English, it’s best to bring a Japanese speaker if possible. The hospital handles a wide range of medical conditions, from orthopedics to emergency care, though patient experiences vary significantly. With a 2.8/5 rating from 188 reviews, feedback suggests professional medical care but communication challenges for non-Japanese speakers. The facilities are clean and staff generally try to be helpful, but don’t expect the level of English support the name might suggest. It’s worth noting that while some departments receive praise for their care quality, others have drawn criticism from patients regarding doctor expertise.
