Some Spaniards go to the hospital in Japan because of an infection caused by eating sushi and give their unfiltered opinion on the health of this country: “The Japanese doctor…”

Indigestion in Japan

At the start of the video, the young woman explains that her partner, Juan, ate something that did not suit him at all. Thanks to travel insurance, they were able to quickly contact medical assistance who redirected them to a hospital. According to him, the insurer spoke directly with the insurance company in Japan and they sent Juan a test to determine what symptoms he was experiencing.

This test, Juan explains, also included several time slots available to go to the hospital. Shortly after, the couple recorded themselves entering the medical center counter. The place catches their attention with its elegant and neat appearance, and the young woman highlights a curious detail: “there is relaxing music in the waiting room,” he said.

Later, he explains that they asked for a doctor who spoke English, although, just in case, Juan had prepared a note with the full explanation of what was happening to him, written in English and Japanese. During the first consultation, he is seen communicating with the doctor using the Google translator, before going to a room equipped with a stretcher to wait for his blood to be drawn.

Finally, the young woman clarifies the diagnosis, namely that Juan had a stomach infection caused by sushi. After the tests, they give them the prescription with the corresponding medicine and they can leave.
