Healthcare in Tokyo

Tokyo is home to Japan’s most comprehensive network of international medical facilities. Major university hospitals, specialized clinics, and international health centers are distributed across the city’s many districts.

English-speaking clinics are especially concentrated in Roppongi, Shinjuku, and Shibuya — areas frequented by international visitors and expatriates. Many facilities are accustomed to serving patients without Japanese national health insurance and offer self-pay options.

Online consultation services are also widely available for Tokyo visitors, offering a convenient alternative when traveling to a clinic is difficult. Always carry your passport and travel insurance documents when visiting any medical facility.
