Dr. Kusakawa review, St Luke`s

I've taken Patrick to Dr Kusakawa at St Luke's for all his check-ups since
his first one as a tiny baby and I've found him to be very nice, speaks good
English, is pretty sensible and down to earth about general care and
medicine. He also seems happy to take time to go through any concerns and I
never feel like I'm being rushed out of the room or asking something
stupid! :)

I've only seen him for check-ups though, not for illnesses. The two times
I've needed a doctor for Patrick between check-ups I've gone to the Tokyo
Medical and Surgical Clinic and seen Dr Marshall, who is a GP.

Cheers,
Allison

Dr. Yoboah, Dr. Suwa review

Following up....

Hello there,

Dr. Suwa's phone number is 03-3444-7070
and the address is
#103Nikko Royal Palace
5-16-4 Hirroo
Shibuya-ku 150-0012

I actually went to see her for my son's first month check up.
Yes she seems to be very competent, spoke English very well but I have to say she was a bit "cold" and the place depressed the hell out of me. It was not really child friendly (I could not dispose the nappies in their bins?!).
I now go to Dr. Nicola Oduro-Yoboah at the Tokyo Medical (yes I know... ). She is not a pediatrician but has experience with small children. I hesitated to go to her, but she has been recommended to me by friends. I have seen her twice and she seemed very competent and comfortable with children. I also find her really easy to talk to and she promptly replies to my emails. A long with the competency I think it is very important to feel comfortable and build a good relationship with your child's care giver. Regarding the fees Dr. Suwa does not seem cheaper but I think she takes Japanese National Insurance, whereas Tokyo Medical doesn't.

Hope this can help,
Bettina

Dr. Yeboah review - Tokyo Surgical & Medical

Dylan and Harper both see Dr Yeboah at Tokyo Surgical & Medical. She is
just fabulous. Really listens and is not quick to hand out antibiotics.
She is British and has a fantastic bedside manner with the girls. Harper
has also seen Dr Martin at the same clinic once when Dr Yeboah was not
available and she seemed like a nice doctor as well.

Cheers

Dr. Kawashima, Dr. Che, pediatrician

Hi Christina,

I see both Dr Kawashima and Dr Che.

Dr Che can be reached at any time day and night on his
mobile phone when Dr Kawashima is just a few blocks
from my house, which makes them extremly convenient
for me.

Both Doctors agree on following the vaccins as they
are indicated on the french medical notebooks of my
kids.
And fill the notebooks each time wich makes it easy
for the follow up when I am in France.

Also, Dr Kawashima is giving herb medicines when an
antibiotic is not necessary.

The thing is, Dr Kawashima is not getting any younger
and although he is ok for the light problems and
monthly check up for babies, when I am really worried
I go to see Dr Che...

Did you have a problem with Dr Che (medical mistake)
or is it just a personality problem?

Dr Kawashima has a smooth way with mums when Dr Che
can be more sarcastic...

Hope this helps, Asia

Dr. Martin review, pediatrician, Tokyo surgical and medical clinic

Dylan has always gone to Dr Martin at the Tokyo Surgical & Medical
Clinic, opposite Tokyo Tower.
She's not a pediatritian, but a GP (general practitioner), so she
sees us too.
She ticks all the boxes on your wish list.
She is always willing to do all the necessary tests to find out
what's wrong.
She is Japanese, but more than fluent in English, as she practiced in
LA too.
She is really great with Dylan, she has stickers for him, a toy
medical kit in her office & she's very patient.
She is also good with my views about not giving medicine unless it's
really necessary.
The TMSC has a 24 hour on call doctor, which rotates, so sometimes
it's her, but someone is always available to talk to you.
I would thoroughly recommend her for anyone.

Dr. Inagaki, pediatrician, Yoyogi Hachiman

I dont know your location but Dr Inagaki on the Odakyu line, 3-4mins
walk from Yoyogi Hachiman station is very good. He just moved to a new
building this year and it has a great play area for children while they
wait to see him, he speaks English and will also treat mums if both mum
and baby have colds.

Dr. Suwa, pediatrician, Hiroo

Hi Christina,
Have you tried Dr. Michiko Suwa in Hiroo? I just went to her for
the first time for my daughter and I thought she was very prompt,
professional, and reasonably priced. She is on the American board of
pediatrics, so I am sure she studied or spent time in the US and her
English is great. I don't have her phone number off hand, but she is
located right on the shopping street in Hiroo a few doors down from
Subway. I am sure you could do a google search for her info. She
also takes appointments as well.
Good luck and I hope you find a doctor that you like!
