Morikawa Yoshiyuki Shounika
Morikawa Yoshiyuki Shounika sits in Tachikawa, one of western Tokyo’s main hubs, inside a small office building a reasonable walk from Tachikawa Station. The full name — こども支援総合クリニック — translates roughly to “comprehensive child support clinic,” which gives you a sense of the scope: this isn’t just a fever-and-go setup. The clinic emphasizes developmental and behavioral pediatrics alongside general children’s health.
The website has some English content, which is a good sign, but don’t assume you’ll walk in and have a fully English consultation. Realistically, you’re looking at a Japanese-primary environment. A translation app will help. If your child has a specific developmental concern rather than a routine illness, this clinic is worth the effort — that’s clearly where their focus lies. For basic sick visits, you might find something closer or more English-friendly depending on where you live in Tokyo.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback points to a doctor who takes time with families rather than rushing through appointments. Wait times can run longer than average, partly because consultations aren’t rushed. Parents dealing with developmental concerns — speech delays, behavioral questions — seem to feel heard here. The clinic has a quieter, more specialist feel than a busy general pediatric walk-in. Expect a thorough appointment, not a fast one.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
