  • English support available

    English support is listed as basic, meaning you can expect minimal assistance rather than a smooth bilingual experience. Staff may manage simple written communication or basic phrases, but anyone with complex medical needs or questions should come prepared with written notes in Japanese or use a translation app. Having your symptoms and medical history written out beforehand will make the appointment go considerably smoother.
