Welcome to Find a Doc, Japan!
This is a crowd-sourced platform to help people find healthcare in their language.
We're happy to have you check out or even join our project! We are a non-profit organization focused on building products that improve the lives of people living in Japan.
Why does this project exist? Have you or a friend ever needed to find a doctor, but you don't speak fluent Japanese? Maybe you're just visiting Japan and need some quick help. This project helps with that — it's a crowd-sourced website to help people find healthcare in their language.
