Shinbashi first clinic

Shinbashi First Clinic is a dermatology clinic on the third floor of the S’TEC3 building in Shimbashi — a short walk from one of Tokyo’s busiest salary-man hubs. The clinic sits under the umbrella of Prime Partners Medical Corporation, which runs several clinics in the area.

Their website has some English content, which is a decent sign, but don’t assume you’ll walk in and have a fully English-speaking consultation. Reception may have limited English, so come prepared with a translation app or written notes about your symptoms. Bring your insurance card and expect standard Japanese clinic paperwork.

For skin concerns — acne, rashes, eczema, moles, or general checkups — this is a convenient option if you’re working or living in the Minato area. The Shimbashi location means it’s genuinely easy to fit into a commute. Just don’t expect a Western-style experience; it’s a Japanese clinic that’s made some effort toward accessibility.
