Ueno Pediatrics Clinic

Ueno Pediatrics Clinic sits on the second floor of a building right at Minowabashi Station — the last stop on the Toden Arakawa Line, Tokyo’s only remaining tram. That’s a useful landmark because the area isn’t heavily mapped in English-language resources, but it’s straightforward to reach from central Tokyo. The clinic focuses entirely on children, handling the usual run of fevers, rashes, vaccinations, and development checks. Staff have conversational English, which means you can get through an appointment without relying entirely on a translation app — though having one handy never hurts. The clinic website (uenokids.com) has some English content, which is a decent sign they’ve thought about non-Japanese patients. This is a neighborhood pediatric clinic, not a Western-style international facility, so expectations should be calibrated accordingly. But for expat families living in or around Arakawa, it fills a real gap.
