Are you on the hunt for an English-speaking doctor in Tokyo? A handy smartphone app aims to help foreign residents and visitors easily find multilingual medical services.
Japan Hospital Guide, released by Tokyo-based nonprofit organization Japan Medical Support System For Visitors From Abroad (JaMSSVA), shows locations of hospitals and clinics with multilingual staff on a GPS map.
Clicking an icon on the map displays which languages staff members speak, the distance to the facility and what kind of medical services are available.
