march clinic
march clinic is an internal medicine practice on the 4th floor of a small commercial building in Higashi-Nippori, Arakawa. That’s not the most expat-heavy part of Tokyo, so don’t expect a bilingual reception team ready to go. The clinic has some English content on its website, which suggests at least some awareness of non-Japanese patients, but whether that translates to a smooth in-person English experience is genuinely unclear. If you speak zero Japanese, bring a translation app or a Japanese-speaking friend. For internal medicine basics — checkups, chronic condition management, common illness — this is a neighborhood clinic doing neighborhood clinic things. Nothing flashy, but Arakawa residents don’t have a ton of English-friendly internal medicine options nearby, so it’s worth knowing about.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback specific to march clinic is limited in English-language sources. Based on clinic type and location, expect a typical Japanese neighborhood internal medicine experience — relatively efficient, doctor-focused visits, minimal small talk. Wait times at smaller local clinics in Tokyo can vary widely depending on the day. Morning slots tend to fill fast. This isn’t a clinic built around expat comfort, but that’s not necessarily a dealbreaker if your needs are straightforward.

For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
