KAZAMA SHIKA
Kazama Shika is a dental clinic tucked on the third floor of the YU-WA Building in Yoyogi, right in the heart of Shibuya ward. It’s a small, neighborhood-style practice — the kind that locals return to for years rather than a polished chain clinic targeting expats.
Their website shows some English-language content, which is a decent sign, but don’t assume the front desk will handle a full conversation in English without friction. A translation app or a Japanese-speaking friend could save you a headache, especially for your first visit when paperwork and medical history questions come up.
For straightforward dental needs — cleanings, checkups, basic fillings — this clinic is worth considering if you’re in the Yoyogi or southern Shibuya area. If you need complex work or extensive back-and-forth communication with your dentist, it’s worth calling ahead to test the English waters before booking.
Yoyogi is easy to reach from multiple train lines, so access isn’t an issue. Just know what you’re walking into: a local Japanese dental practice that may accommodate English speakers, but isn’t built around them.
Patient Feedback
No substantial English-language patient reviews are publicly available for Kazama Shika. Based on its profile as a small, local Shibuya dental practice, expect a fairly typical Japanese clinic experience: punctual appointments, methodical care, and a quieter atmosphere than larger urban dental chains. Wait times at smaller practices like this tend to be shorter than hospital-affiliated clinics. First-time visits will likely involve written intake forms — almost certainly in Japanese only.
