Is Japanese medicine more sophisticated than American medicine?
In what regards? Simple colds and over the counter medicine? Critical diagnosis and surgery? Maternity care? Emergency rooms?
I've only done basic care in Japan and America so cannot compare all levels of health care. Plus, insurance is a factor. If your job doesn't provide insurance, there is affordable national health care in Japan so there's no excuse not to see a physician. We would go for the common cold instead of getting over the counter medicine. (The meds we got felt as weak as American OTC cold stuff.) For OTC medicine though I must note that they sell a gargle for sore throats which does miracles unlike American OTC cold medicines. I've had more advanced stuff in Japan than in America but it was still low level stuff, such as blood work and Asthma care. All seemed fine, not particularly sophisticated, it just worked. Maternity care is generally 1 week in the hospital compared to American overnight or same day drop and release. Thankfully I've never had to go to the emergency room but all cold visits in Japan were not scheduled, we just showed up.
