Resources for doctors, dentists and receiving medical care in Mie.

Official List of English-speaking Doctors

  • Mie Prefecture Medical Service Search Engine
    Maintained by the Mie Prefecture Emergency Medical Information Centre. Use this search engine to search for clinics in your area by English language availability and the type of medical service you require. Be warned that some doctors on the list speak great, others may speak little to no English.
  • MIEF English-speaking Doctors and Dentists List
    Maintained by the Mie International Exchange Foundation. The top link is for clinics that speak English, the middle link is for drug stores that can use English and the bottom link is for dentists. The list is in Japanese but with furigana over the kanji for ease of use. As above, be warned that some doctors on the list speak great, others may speak little to no English.

Unofficial List of English-speaking Doctors (Personal Recommendations)

This list is based on the experience of miejets.org users and is not associated with MIEF or any other official organization; these are personal recommendations by local expats.

The Good

The Bad

Please try to keep bad reviews civil.

  • Dr. Ishikura, Norio at Tōyama Hospital (遠山病院) - Tsu (Shinmachi)
    He has a history of enthusiastic ALT chest grabbing and fondling -- avoid if female.
  • Dr. Saeki at the Saeki Clinic - Kameyama
    "the doctor is very unprofessional, he didn't even use rubbing alcohol to disinfect before performing a procedure that involved some tissue damage (cutting an ingrown toenail for those who want the gory details). He also informed me that I have to come for a checkup every day and that I shouldn't go to another clinic until he says it's ok."
