- How does booking dialysis in Shizuoka work?
- Choose a clinic that accepts international patients, send a request with your dialysis details and preferred dates, and our concierge contacts the facility and confirms your appointment. You pay the treatment fee at the clinic; our service fee applies only after confirmation.
- What documents do I need?
- A referral letter from your doctor and recent infection test results (HBs antigen, HCV antibody, HIV, within 3 months). You can upload them with your request, and we help with translation if the facility requires it.
- How much does dialysis cost for travellers in Japan?
- There are two parts. The clinic's own self-pay fee is typically around ¥30,000–80,000 per session, depending on the facility and treatment (HD or HDF). With full arrangement for an overseas visitor — interpretation, documents, transfers and coordination — an all-inclusive arranged session usually comes to about ¥100,000–150,000. We give you a clear, all-in quote for your dates before you commit.

- Do the staff speak English?
- Each clinic lists its supported languages. Our concierge communicates with you in English (more languages soon) and handles the Japanese coordination on your behalf.
