Minami-Senjyu Station (Hibiya Line) — 2 min walk
  • Inside BiVi Minami-Senju building
  • Near central Tokyo
  • InabaKidsclinic sits on the third floor of the BiVi Minami-Senju commercial building in Arakawa — convenient if you’re near the Tsukuba Express or Hibiya Line. It’s a standard Japanese pediatric clinic focused on everyday kids’ health: checkups, vaccinations, fevers, rashes, that kind of thing.

    The website has some English content, which suggests they’ve thought about non-Japanese patients at least a little. But “some English online” doesn’t automatically mean the reception desk can hold a conversation. Walk-in communication will likely require a translation app or a Japanese-speaking friend if your Japanese is minimal. Bring a bilingual summary of your child’s medical history just in case.

    For expat families in Arakawa or the Minami-Senju area, this is a reasonable local option — especially if you need something close to home rather than trekking to a big international clinic. Just go in with realistic expectations about the language situation.

    Patient Feedback

    Patient feedback points to a relatively standard neighborhood pediatric experience — reasonable wait times for a busy kids’ clinic, doctors who take time with consultations, and a clean, child-friendly space inside a shopping complex. Parents seem to appreciate the accessibility of the BiVi building location. Nothing stands out as exceptional or problematic. It reads as a solid, reliable local option rather than a destination clinic.

    English Language Proficiency

    The clinic has English content on its website, which is a better sign than nothing. But that doesn't confirm English-speaking staff at the front desk or during consultations. Realistically, you should expect Japanese-primary service. A translation app like Google Translate or Midori will help. If your child has complex medical history or allergies, bring a written Japanese summary prepared in advance. A Japanese-speaking friend accompanying you would make the visit significantly smoother.
