Finding healthcare in Japan as a non-Japanese speaker is genuinely difficult. Most clinic websites are Japanese-only, Google results are unreliable, and the few English directories that exist are outdated.
Kantan Health is an automated, AI-curated directory of healthcare providers in Japan that cater to English speakers. It covers clinics, hospitals, specialists, and GPs — with verified English-language capability, location data, and real contact information.
Built on WordPress with a custom AI pipeline written in Python, the system continuously monitors and updates listings. It's not a crowdsourced directory that goes stale — it's an automated one that stays current.
Automated Listings
A Python-based crawler and AI pipeline continuously discovers and updates healthcare providers across Japan, so the directory never goes stale.
English-Speaker Verified
Every listing is verified for English-language capability — not just flagged as 'international friendly', but actually checked for English-speaking staff.
Specialty Coverage
From GPs and dentists to psychiatrists and OB/GYNs, Kantan Health covers the full spectrum of healthcare needs for the expat community.
Location-Based Search
Find healthcare providers near you by city, ward, or train station — the way you actually navigate Japan.
