Where these came from

451 of the 453 come from Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare. The other 2 come from a Korean embassy or consulate. Korean embassies and consulates publish these lists for Korean citizens abroad, naming local hospitals, lawyers and interpreters and, for each, whether they can serve in Korean (and sometimes English). The embassies say they do not vouch for the providers. Some of these are on 医療情報ネット, the medical register Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare publishes from what each hospital and clinic is required by law to report about itself. Languages whose entry, in the facility's own words, relies on a translation device or interpreter, asks patients to call first or offers only a few words are left out, and in Tokyo, whose form also asks it, only languages the facility accepts patients in without prior consultation are listed.

All 453 sit on an official list, published by a body with nothing to sell.

If none of these fits

If none of these fits, the nearest doctors we list are in Osaka (1015, 28 km away), Nara (136, 56 km away) and Kyoto (385, 63 km away). Kobe itself also has 225 dentists, 48 pharmacies, 8 lawyers and 1 school listed. A gap here means we have not found a source we can cite, not that nobody exists.
