Kojimachi Station (Tozai Line) — 2 min walk
  • English website available
  • Near central Tokyo
  • Kawana Shika sits on the first floor of a commercial building in Kojimachi, one of the quieter, more businesslike corners of Chiyoda. It’s a general dental clinic — cleanings, fillings, the usual — in a neighborhood full of offices and embassies, which means it’s used to seeing people who aren’t from around here.

    Their website has some English content, which is a decent sign, but don’t assume you’ll walk in and have a smooth English-language conversation at the front desk. The English online presence suggests awareness of international patients, not necessarily a bilingual team. Bring your Japanese dental vocabulary, a translation app, or a patient Japanese-speaking friend if you’re nervous about communicating symptoms.

    That said, Kojimachi is extremely accessible — it’s a short walk from Hanzomon and Kojimachi stations — and a dental clinic in this area that’s made any effort toward English is worth knowing about if you live or work nearby in central Tokyo.

    Patient Feedback

    Patient feedback points to a straightforward, no-fuss dental experience. The clinic feels professional and clean without being flashy. Appointments tend to run on time, which matters in a busy Chiyoda office district. Doctors are described as thorough and not rushed. It’s a practical neighborhood dentist, not a specialist clinic — good for maintenance and minor issues, less clear on complex procedures for non-Japanese speakers.

    English Language Proficiency

    The clinic has English on their website, which suggests they've thought about international patients at least a little. But confirmed English-speaking staff is not documented. Reception may have limited English. Forms are likely Japanese only. Your safest bet: use a translation app for intake paperwork, write down your symptoms in Japanese beforehand, and don't expect a fully English consultation. If your dental need is routine, you'll probably manage fine.
