TAMUSU SOUGOUKURINIKKU SINKOIWAEKIMAE
Tamusu General Clinic, located just in front of Shinkoiwa Station in Katsushika, is a dermatology clinic on the eastern edge of Tokyo. Shinkoiwa is a working-class neighborhood a few stops past Kinshicho on the Sobu Line — not a central location, but easily accessible by train from much of east Tokyo and the surrounding area.
The clinic handles general dermatology, covering the typical range of skin concerns you’d bring to this type of practice: rashes, acne, eczema, allergies, and similar conditions.
