Furukawa Shika Shouni Shika
Furukawa Shika Shouni Shika is a general and pediatric dental clinic in Kokubunji, a quieter residential part of western Tokyo. The “shouni shika” part means they see kids too, which is genuinely useful if you’ve got little ones who need a dentist. The website has some English-language content, which suggests they’ve thought about non-Japanese patients — but that doesn’t guarantee a fully English-capable front desk when you walk in. Expect Japanese-primary communication with possible limited English. A translation app will help. The clinic is in Izumi-cho, a neighborhood feel rather than a busy commercial strip. If you’re living in the Kokubunji or Kunitachi area and need routine dental work or a family-friendly option for your kids, this is a reasonable local option worth a call ahead to check English availability.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback points to a calm, unhurried clinic atmosphere — not a rushed conveyor-belt operation. The pediatric focus seems genuine, with the environment apparently set up to be less intimidating for kids. Wait times appear reasonable for a neighborhood practice. Thoroughness in explaining treatment gets mentioned positively. Don’t expect a lot of small talk if your Japanese is limited, but the clinical experience itself reads as competent and careful.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
