SERIZAWA Clinic
SERIZAWA Clinic is a neighborhood internal medicine clinic in Ohanajaya, Katsushika — one of those genuinely local spots that’s been quietly serving the community for years. It’s not a foreigner-focused clinic, but they do have conversational English and some English materials, so you won’t be completely on your own if your Japanese is limited.
This is your go-to for everyday adult health stuff: checkups, chronic condition management, colds that won’t quit, blood pressure, diabetes follow-ups, that kind of thing. The vibe is small, local, and no-frills — expect a waiting room full of neighborhood regulars rather than a polished international clinic experience.
Ohanajaya is a quiet residential corner of Katsushika, not exactly central Tokyo, but the clinic is easy to reach from Ohanajaya Station on the Keisei Oshiage Line. If you live in eastern Tokyo and want a solid local GP who can at least meet you halfway in English, this is worth knowing about.
Patient Feedback
Patients describe a classic small Japanese neighborhood clinic feel — efficient, no-nonsense, and doctor-focused. Wait times can vary depending on the day, with busier mornings typical of local clinics. The doctor tends to be thorough with explanations, which helps if you need things clarified. Don’t expect a lot of hand-holding, but patients generally leave feeling like their concern was actually addressed rather than rushed through.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
