Our Story

Founded in 2020 during the pandemic by LaShawn Toyoda and Phil Ermish, our mission is to promote a healthier and more inclusive society. We offer quality health information for free in many languages for everyone, including foreigners and medical professionals. We aim for a Japan where all people, regardless of nationality or language, can confidently navigate the healthcare system, find the right doctors and get the healthcare they need.

We are a non-profit organization driven by the ideal that everyone should have access to health information as part of a flourishing life. Our activities are guided by a sense of social justice, cultural sensitivity and innovation. We are always happy to connect with partners in the governmental, non-profit and medical communities. Together with our partners, we hope to create a Japan where everyone has access to healthcare, feels included and can live well.
