Shimizu Shounika Naika Clinic

Shimizu Shounika Naika Clinic sits in Fussa, a city in western Tokyo that many expats know because of its proximity to Yokota Air Base. That location matters — the clinic likely sees international patients more than your average neighborhood clinic, which probably affects how comfortable staff are with non-Japanese speakers. The clinic covers both pediatrics and internal medicine, so it works for families dealing with kids’ illnesses and adults with general health concerns under one roof.

The website has some English content, which is a decent sign, but don’t assume you’ll walk in and have a smooth English conversation at the front desk. Come with your Japanese health insurance card, a translation app ready, and any medication names written down. That said, clinics near Yokota tend to be more foreigner-aware than most Tokyo clinics, so the experience is likely more relaxed than somewhere in central Tokyo with zero international exposure.

Good for: families near Fussa, Yokota-area residents, general checkups, kids’ visits.
