Ichigaya Station (Marunouchi Line) — 3 min walk
  • Multiple train lines, Ichigaya Station
  • Near central Tokyo
  • Kokoasu Clinic Ichigaya is a general internal medicine clinic tucked into the Sanki Building in Shinjuku’s Ichigaya area — a quieter pocket of the ward compared to the chaos around Shinjuku Station itself. They handle the usual internal medicine workload: colds, chronic conditions, checkups, referrals. The clinic has some English-language presence on their website, which is a decent sign, but whether that translates to a smooth English consultation is genuinely unclear. Don’t walk in expecting a fully bilingual experience. If your Japanese is limited, come prepared — a translation app, a bilingual friend, or a written summary of your symptoms will all help. That said, the Ichigaya location is convenient for expats living or working in central Tokyo, sitting close to Ichigaya Station on the JR Sobu, Toei Shinjuku, Tokyo Metro Namboku, and Yurakucho lines. Small clinic, practical focus, no frills.

    Patient Feedback

    Patient feedback on this clinic is limited in English-language spaces, so there’s not much crowd-sourced data to work with. Based on what’s available, it appears to run as a standard small Japanese internal medicine clinic — appointment-based, relatively low wait times compared to larger hospitals, and a focused no-nonsense consultation style. Don’t expect lengthy explanations unprompted. If you want details about your diagnosis or treatment plan, ask directly. Standard Japanese clinic energy: efficient, not warm-and-fuzzy.

    English Language Proficiency

    The clinic has some English on its website, which suggests awareness of non-Japanese patients — but that's not the same as bilingual staff. Full English service is unconfirmed. Reception likely speaks limited English at best. Forms are almost certainly Japanese-only. If you go, use Google Translate or Midori app for on-the-spot help, write your symptoms down in Japanese beforehand, or bring someone who speaks Japanese. Don't assume you'll be understood just by speaking slowly.
