Caloo Japan Hospital & Clinic Scraper

Scrape hospitals, clinics and dental clinics from Caloo (病院口コミ検索カルー), Japan's hospital review directory: about 182,000 medical facilities in all 47 prefectures with patient reviews and survey cards. Get facility names, phone numbers, postal codes and addresses, GPS coordinates, nearest stations, ratings and review counts, consultation hours and closed days, medical departments, board-certified specialists, treatments, vaccinations, payment methods, parking, directors, websites, online-booking links and full review texts.

HTTP-only. No browser, no API key, no login. Search pages and facility pages are read as server-rendered HTML with schema.org structured data, so the fields are clean and stable.

What you can do with it

• Healthcare B2B lead generation – every facility has a phone number; most have an address, coordinates, departments, staff qualifications and a website. Target dermatology clinics for a cosmetic device, dental clinics for an implant system, or every hospital with a dialysis unit in a prefecture.
• Market and location analysis – facility density by city and department, opening hours and Sunday coverage, cashless adoption, online-booking adoption, patient demand from caloo page-view counts.
• Reputation monitoring – ratings, review counts and full review texts with visit period, wait time, fee and department, for one facility or a whole ward.
• Recruiting and medical sales territories – specialists on staff, treatments offered, director names.
• Data enrichment – match to your CRM by name, phone or address; the hospitalId is stable across runs.

How it works

1. Pick a prefecture. Optionally narrow to a city / ward (新宿区, 横浜市中区, 八王子, partial names are fine, or a JIS code such as 13104) and a department (内科, 歯科, 皮膚科, Dermatology, or a code such as k41).
2. Or paste your own Start URLs: any caloo.jp search page, including station pages (/hospitals/search/s1130203/all) and feature pages (/hospitals/search/13/all/64 = female doctors). Each is paginated for you (20 facilities per page).
3. Set Max facilities. Tick Scrape facility pages for phone, address, coordinates, closed days, payments, parking, specialists and treatments; tick Scrape all reviews to attach up to Max reviews full reviews and survey cards per facility.

Caloo shows at most 100 pages (2,000 facilities) per search. When a prefecture or city holds more, the Actor splits it into its cities, wards and towns automatically, so a whole-prefecture run still reaches every facility. Results land in the run's dataset, one item per facility, with ready-made table views for Overview, Contact & location, Hours & practicalities, Medical profile and Reputation.

Pricing

Pay per result: you are charged only for facilities actually saved to the dataset. Facility pages and review pages add requests but not cost per facility. Start with a small maxResults to check the fields you need, then scale up.

Tips

• hospitalId is stable; use it to deduplicate across runs. Promoted (PR) cards are included and flagged with isPromoted: true; they can belong to a neighbouring area, so filter them out if you need strict geography.
• rating and ratingCount combine written reviews and survey postcards; reviewCount is written reviews only.
• hours keys are mon…sun plus hol for public holidays. Hospitals often publish reception hours here rather than consultation hours; hoursNote carries the remarks.
• Card-level departments are the facility's main departments; facility pages add the complete grouped list, specialists, specialty clinics, treatments and vaccinations.
• Whole-prefecture runs are big: Tokyo has about 28,000 facilities, Osaka 15,000, Kanagawa 13,000. Use city, department or maxResults to size the run; the Actor splits large areas into cities and towns by itself so nothing past caloo's 2,000-per-search window is lost.
• Sorting by rating or reviews with a small maxResults is a quick way to get the most visible facilities in an area.
