Before you goAsk about the ¥7,700 first-visit fee without a referral letter. The hospital does not have pediatrics, ENT or dentistry. Routine reception and emergency care have different arrangements.
These are selected facilities with public visitor information, not a ranking or a complete directory. We checked the linked pages; we have not confirmed a live appointment or contacted each facility. Listing a clinic does not imply a referral partnership with Japan Care Guide.
Ask about the total fee, required documents and insurance arrangements directly. A translated page or a listed language does not guarantee that a particular clinician or interpreter will be available. Travel insurance coverage depends on your policy.
Our online booking buttons are labelled separately and lead to Travelers Hospital. The clinic website links above lead to the named facilities.

Questions before booking
Does a 24-hour consultation mean I can collect medicine at any time?+
No. A prescription depends on the doctor’s assessment. Collection depends on pharmacy opening hours and stock; confirm the pharmacy and timing with the provider.
Can I use my travel insurance or credit-card insurance?+
It depends on the policy, covered treatment and claim requirements. Check with your insurer and keep your receipts and any required medical documents.
Will the doctor speak the language of this page?+
This guide is translated. Travelers Hospital has English–Japanese bilingual doctors. Other language assistance must be confirmed with the provider; a translated page is not a promise of a doctor in that language.
Japan Care Guide is operated by Cocktail, an agency for Travelers Hospital. We introduce an online consultation service; we do not operate a local hospital or pharmacy.
