Garden Clinic Hiroo

Dr Keong is a wonderful doctor and has been my go-to for managing eczema. She has been very helpful and uses a variety of medications such as protopic, steroids and biologics. She is very knowledgeable and friendly and I’m sure that as long as you work with her then things should turn out great for your skin. I have recommended many of my close friends and family to this clinic and all have had nothing but positive experiences here.

Dr. Keong is very caring and knowledgeable. My 7-year-old son was suffering from eczema, and she guided the improvement (we used steroid and weaned it slowly). She is straightforward and thinks of the best solution for the patient. She may come off strong, but that's just her style. She was very patient in explaining all my questions. I have visited many dermatologists in the past, but she has been the best so far.

10/10 I can recommend this place. The doctor speaks English, and she's super good. Took care of all of my problems, thoroughly examined the root causes and finally gave me the right solutions.

Friendly staff, clean place. Will recommend this to all my family and friends.

One of my favorite things about this doctor is she never tries to push unnecessary products on me, and even recommends OTC products that are cheaper than prescriptions when applicable. She genuinely listens to my concerns and creates a treatment plan with me. Also LGBTQ+ friendly!

Very friendly doctor surrounded by a welcoming team. I came for a full body skin cancer check, which was made very carefully and with full attention to each body part.
Can only recommend.

Very caring. Thankfully nothing to worry about but took her time to explain what to look for in the future and even a personal get to know you chat. Thanks very much Dr Keong.

The doctor is extremely friendly, considerate and professional. I can’t speak for regular appointments as I had a full skin screening but she was considerate and took time to answer my questions. I see some negative reviews here but to be honest I feel like those reviews are most likely from people who themselves had bad attitudes. Either that or I saw a completely different doctor to them. All round, very pleased and won’t hesitate to come back in the future.

I have visited Dr Keong for my child’s skin problems a couple of times and each time, she has been very caring and provided very valuable assistance and advice. Some waiting time is usually required but we can also tell the team are trying to minimize it.

The doctor is very nice and knowledgeable. The medicine she gave cured my face so quickly within 3 days. I recommend this place for everyone who has skin problems and is looking for a doctor who can speak English.

the doctor is amazing. She will take her time, listen to you, reassure you. She did an amazing job. She's a great person. If you want to go to this clinic don't hesitate.
You have to wait a long time before pass, I arrived at 10:30 and I pass at 12:00. But still, except this, the staff is also really kind.
I hope the product she gave me (NINAZOL) is going to work and don't cause me secondary effect (I have a sensitive scalp). So I'll write another comment after to update
I wanted to thanks all the staff again and especially the doctor who were so nice.

The doctor was great and explained my condition in detail and took her time to answer all my questions. I’m glad to find this clinic!! I didn’t have to wait long too or maybe I got lucky. (No need for reservations, just walk-in). I recommend going just before they open. I was the first patient today at 3pm. I hope my scalp condition gets better after using what she prescribed me…

Blown away by my experience here.

The staff could speak English and was polite and accommodating.

I came here for acne problems. The doctor was very nice. She is basically bilingual, her pronunciation was perfect. She asked questions and explained clearly. She took the time to explain the treatment plan. She even said “Take care” before I left.

Being in Japan for so long, I am used to doctors just spending the minimum amount of time with their patient but this experience exceeded expectations.

I had an eczema breakout all over my neck that I had been dealing with for the past 3-4 years and had multiple doctors give me ointments and creams that just never worked. I figured I just had to live with it until I started getting an eyelid rash too so I came here for a consultation. Dr.Keong immediately noticed my neck eczema, did a quick skin check for infections, and assured me she could help me with both my eyelids and neck. My skin cleared up completely in 2 weeks. A few months later, I had another breakout which prompted another visit and so far has been healing nicely.

My only complaint would be the wait times can be quite long, especially on the weekends.

Doctor was friendly. She listened to my concerns and showed to me that she was not disgusted by any kind of skin condition. She gave me medicines, supplements, and shampoo which I think helped with my problems. Thanks so much for a wonderful & easy visit.

The doctor and the staff were very nice and quite supportive in piercing the ear of our baby. The doctor spoke very good English . My daughter did not even shed a tear after piercing. Highly recommended for ear piercing.

Very competent, professional and friendly doctor. My boyfriend and I went there due to different skin issues and were very satisfied how everything was handled. I can highly recommend this clinic.

Dr. Keong has given me some of the best doctor experiences in Japan. Every consultation with her has felt very personable, friendly, kind and took an interest in me as a person and not just a patient.

I’ve had to deal with eczema all my life and already knew the types of medication I needed. She listened and understood what I asked for and found similar versions of the medication in Japan which worked better than any meds I’ve used before.

I’ve seen about 6 other dermatologists in Japan who have never listened to me and always thought they knew better, and prescribed meds that made my skin issues worse.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Keong for 3 years now and have no intention of seeing any other dermatologist.

Thanks Dr. Keong! You’re the best 😊

I never had very bad acne when I was in my home country, the Philippines. However, upon moving to Japan, the cold dry weather made my skin broke out so bad that my confidence dropped to the point that I don’t want to face other people anymore.

Dr. Keong monitored my skin so well and after a few months of consulting with her, she managed to clear out my acne! She also helped me with my acne scars!

Dr. Keong and her staff are so kind. They will treat you like a member of their family.

The queue can be so long especially on Saturdays but waiting in line will be worth it! I definitely recommend this clinic!

I’ve visited Garden Clinic since it opened. Dr. Keong has always been kind and courteous. She has helped my family and I with any skin problems we had.

I was most impressed when I visited her clinic because I fell and the skin about my right eye was split open with a deep cut. She gave me 12 stitches. She is a Dermatologist and knew exactly how to gentle make the stitches to keep the cut from scaring.

Three months later, there is almost no scar. If you saw before and after photos you would be amazed.

Since the doctor is fluent in English, and if you are an English speaker, I would highly recommend Garden Clinic.

— Please note the clinic takes Japanese Health Insurance.

I actually live 1 hour 25 mins away from the clinic but due to my limited Japanese skills, I had to look for a more English-friendly options. I found them on the internet and I think I have found my dermatologist in Japan. The doctor, she was very thorough and well-spoken. Even the receptionist and nurses spoke English. Thank god I found them 😌The long commute was worth every penny.
