  • NOZAKI Clinic is a small internal medicine practice tucked into the third floor of the Daido Building in Asagaya Minami, Suginami. It’s the kind of neighborhood clinic that handles the everyday stuff — chronic conditions, checkups, referrals — rather than emergencies or specialist procedures. The area is residential and quiet, well-served by Asagaya Station on the JR Chuo Line.

    The clinic has some English content on its website, which is a decent sign, but don’t assume you’ll walk in and have a fully English conversation. Reality is probably closer to basic English phrases at reception with a lot of pointing and phone translation filling the gaps. If your Japanese is zero, bring a translation app and write down your symptoms beforehand. For straightforward internal medicine needs — a persistent cough, blood pressure management, getting labs done — this clinic is a practical local option if you live in Suginami.

    Patient Feedback

    Patient feedback points to a calm, unhurried clinic with a thorough approach to consultations — this isn’t a place where you feel rushed out in three minutes. Wait times can stretch during busy morning slots, so arriving early or booking ahead helps. The doctor is described as attentive and willing to explain things. Atmosphere is low-key and neighborhood-clinic in feel, not a slick urban medical center.

    English Language Proficiency

    The clinic has English on its website, which suggests some awareness of non-Japanese patients, but confirmed English-speaking staff hasn't been verified. Expect Japanese-primary interactions at reception and during consultations. A translation app like Google Translate or DeepL will carry most of the weight. Writing down symptoms and medication names in Japanese before you go will save everyone time. Medical forms are almost certainly Japanese only.
