**Any fasting friendly english speaking doctor in the Tokyo area?**
Looking for a english/spanish speaking fasting friendly doctor on the tokyo area. I just got medical insurance and am clueless on where to go. Thanks!

I’m not sure what “fasting friendly” means, but this sounds more like a question for /r/japanlife or /r/japanresidents than here.
Most doctors won’t give a shit unless you are unhealthy. If you are healthy and fasting they won’t care. If you are unhealthy and fasting as part of weight loss, they won’t care. If you are underweight/undernourished and fasting, no doctor worth visiting will react positively.
I haven’t met a doctor yet that has criticized my fasting in any way, in Japan or the US. Is that a thing?
