329. Ningen Dock: Japan's Full-Body Health Checkup | 人間ドックを受けてきました
About this episode
In this episode, Sayuri discusses her experience with Japan's full-body health checkup known as Ningen Dock and compares it to the annual company-arranged checkup.
"Human dock." That's what 人間(にんげん）ドック literally says. So what do you think it actually means? Maybe some of you are thinking "human and dog." I went for one recently, and in this episode I talk through the whole morning, from the changing room to sitting down with the doctor at the end. I also get into how it's different from the kenko shindan (健康診断), the free yearly checkup that companies arrange, and the one test I'd rather not do again. 🎧 Full transcript, video, and more: https://sayurisaying.com Search by episode number (e.g., “EP 120”) to find what you need!🐧 Join the Penguin Family for bonus content & support the show!
