Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, you can use your Japanese Health Insurance for appointments with our doctors. We accept Employee’s Health Insurance (Shakai hoken) and Japan National Health Insurance (Kokumin Kenko Hoken).

Do I need an appointment?

We kindly ask you to book an appointment to ensure there is sufficient time for your consultation and to reduce waiting times. Appointments can be made here.

Can I reschedule my appointment if I can’t make it?

Yes, you can. Our booking system sends you the confirmation email upon booking and you can use canceling link on it to cancel and then re-book appointments at your convenience.

As for testing and therapy, you can email us to reschedule if it’s still 4 days prior to the scheduled time.

What is a 診断書 (Doctor’s Note)?

診断書 (shindansho) is a document that your doctor may be able to write for you based on your consultation that allows you to take time off of work or school to help your recovery. Most Japanese workplaces and schools require this document to grant you sick leave.

How can I get a doctor’s note?

We can issue a standard format doctor’s note (診断書 / medical certificate) on the day of your appointment after your consultation with the doctor upon request. If you require the note in English and your consultation is on a weekend, this may take until the next weekday to be available.

What is a 傷病手当 (Sickness Allowance)?

Depending on your insurance provider, you may be able to earn a part of your salary while you’re off sick. You’ll need the endorsement from a doctor. Please speak to your insurance provider to get the right documents needed.

How do I get a 傷病手当 (Sickness Allowance)? What are the rules?

You’ll need to be seeing a doctor regularly, usually at least once every 2-4 weeks, and taking time off of work using a medical certificate. Once you acquire the correct documents from your provider, bring them to your appointment. The doctor will check your attendance and sign off if all points have been met. Please note that we can not cover for any period prior to your first appointment, nor can we cover for any date beyond the signing date. Please contact us for more details regarding your specific situation.

I’m a 16-year-old student, can I consult with a doctor?

Yes, you can. We see patients aged 15 and older, and there is no parental consent required to see a doctor or a psychotherapist. But, patients aged 19 and younger will require parental consent to get certain treatments, such as prescription medication. Please enquire for more details.

Can I bring a friend with me to the clinic for support?
