Hara Shika Clinic
Hara Shika Clinic sits in Chofu, a quieter residential pocket of western Tokyo near Jindaiji — not exactly central, but easy enough to reach if you’re in that part of the city. It’s a general dental clinic handling the usual range: checkups, cleanings, fillings, and more involved restorative work. The website has some English content, which suggests they’ve thought about international patients at least a little — but don’t walk in assuming fluent English-speaking staff. You’ll likely need to prepare a few Japanese phrases or bring a translation app for anything beyond pointing at your tooth. That said, the clinic appears to be a neighborhood practice with a straightforward approach — no flashy “international clinic” branding, just dentistry. If you live in Chofu or nearby Mitaka, this is worth knowing about. If you’re coming from central Tokyo specifically for English support, manage your expectations first.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback points to a calm, no-rush atmosphere typical of smaller neighborhood clinics. Appointments tend to run on time, and the dentist is described as thorough without being alarmist — they explain what they’re doing before they do it. It’s not a high-volume urban clinic, so you’re unlikely to feel like a number. Expats who’ve been report it’s manageable with basic Japanese or a phone translation app.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
