Seeking Endocrinologist in Japan: Can Anyone Recommend a Clinic/Center for Thyroid Testing as a foreigner?

Heading to Japan soon and in need of an appointment with an endocrinologist to test calcitonin levels, due to cancer fears. A regular check up (3 months) was recommended by the doctor at home.

Looking for a clinic where it’s easy for foreigners to book an appointment with a knowledgeable endocrinologist who conducts thorough tests (Sonographie & Blood Test) and where the bureaucratic process isn’t too daunting. It’s crucial that the tests are conducted properly, including ensuring that blood samples are promptly sent to the lab without being delayed as otherwise it could falsify results.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a clinic or hospital in Japan that fits these criteria, preferably Tokyo?

Greatly appreciate any insights or advice on navigating the Japanese healthcare system.
