  • Tetsugakudo Kikuchi Dermatology Clinic is a dermatology practice in Nakano, a residential ward in western Tokyo well connected by the Chuo and Tozai lines. The clinic handles standard skin concerns — rashes, acne, eczema, allergies, and general dermatological conditions typical of a neighborhood practice.
