  • Minimal wait times with reservations.
  • Accepts appointments

    • Yokohama Gate Tower Internal Medicine is a medical facility in Yokohama providing general internal medicine services. The clinic stands out for its efficient appointment system, with patients reporting minimal wait times when appointments are made in advance. The medical staff, including doctors and nurses, are noted for their attentiveness and thorough explanations during consultations. The facility offers vaccination services, including Moderna COVID-19 vaccines. One nurse at the front desk speaks English, making the clinic more accessible to non-Japanese speakers. While the clinic receives positive reviews for its professional care and friendly staff, some patients have noted issues with weak air conditioning during summer months, which can be uncomfortable when masks are required indoors. The clinic’s high rating (4.3/5 from 34 reviews) reflects overall patient satisfaction with the quality of care and service provided. Japanese patients particularly appreciate the detailed explanations given by doctors, which some note is uncommon in their experience with other medical facilities in Japan.

    Patient Feedback

    Patients consistently praise the clinic for minimal wait times when appointments are made. The medical staff receives positive feedback for their attentiveness, with doctors looking patients in the eye during consultations and providing thorough explanations. Japanese reviewers specifically note this level of care as exceptional compared to other facilities. The friendly demeanor of all staff—from receptionists to doctors—is frequently mentioned. Negative comments focus primarily on uncomfortable indoor temperatures during summer months, with one patient noting weak air conditioning despite mandatory mask requirements.

    English Language Proficiency

    One review explicitly mentions that a nurse at the front desk speaks English, which helped accommodate a patient who knew only "a little bit of Japanese" and was nervous about the language barrier. This patient successfully received a Moderna vaccination at the clinic. No other reviews specifically address English language capabilities of other staff members. Foreign patients with limited Japanese language skills should note this front desk support, though comprehensive English service throughout the facility is not confirmed in the reviews.
