Report
Conveniently located close to BDFM and 7 subways. Friendly secretary and office staff. Had a regular check-up recently and I requested some out of the ordinary blood tests, and did not feel judged at all. Knowledgeable doctor. Clean and well decorated office and it feels very Japanese. BEST phlebotomist I've ever had. didn't even feel the needle prick.

Report
Good clinic especially for Japanese people living in NY. You can use your travel insurance issued in Japan and see doctors who speak Japanese for cashless. They are open not only weekdays but also on weekends for emergency needs. Dr. James Chow is very friendly and capable of taking care of all kinds of health conditions. Located in midtown and very convenient.
