  • English-speaking support available
  • Friendly and caring staff
  • Professional medical care

    • Located in Minato ward, JCHO Tokyo Takanawa Hospital is a general medicine facility that sees a mix of Japanese and international patients. While they offer basic English support, experiences can vary significantly depending on which staff members are available. The hospital handles everything from routine checkups to urgent care, with Sunday emergency services available – helpful since many Tokyo clinics close on weekends. The facility averages 2.9/5 stars in patient reviews, with feedback highlighting inconsistent experiences, particularly around language support and staff interactions. They’re equipped for general medical care but international patients should be prepared for potential communication challenges. The location is convenient for central Tokyo residents, though specific accessibility details aren’t published.

    Patient Feedback

    Patient experiences vary widely. Some praise the efficiency and availability of weekend appointments, particularly appreciating staff who make extra effort with English communication. However, others report challenging interactions, especially regarding staff attitudes toward international patients. Several reviews mention rushed consultations and communication difficulties, while positive feedback focuses on prompt treatment and those staff members who provide attentive care.

    English Language Proficiency

    The hospital provides basic English support through interpreters at reception and some English-speaking nurses, but availability isn't guaranteed. While some staff can communicate in English, levels vary considerably. Patient reviews suggest bringing a Japanese speaker for complex consultations when possible. Some forms and materials are available in English, but the overall experience depends heavily on which staff members are working.
