Japanese medical institutions are roughly divided into two types: private clinics owned and operated by doctors and general hospitals. Clinics are usually located in neighborhoods, thus you can comfortably consult about your family’s health condition. However, they are usually limited in the types of medical treatment they offer. General hospitals provide medical treatment in a greater number of fields and are equipped with more extensive facilities and manpower. However, because of the large number of patients, there is usually a long waiting list. Doctors also do not have as much time to spend with each patient, reducing the opportunity to have extensive consultations.
As medical institutions differ in their area of specialization and features, it is recommended that you check the medical institutions in your neighborhood before a problem arises.
