kondo shika
Kondo Shika (こんどう歯科クリニック) is a neighborhood dental clinic sitting on the ground floor of a residential building in Minami-Rokugo, Ota Ward — not the most central part of Tokyo, but a real community practice serving locals who keep coming back. The website (friendship-dent.com) has some English content, which is a good sign, but don’t assume you’ll walk in and conduct a full conversation in English without effort. Bring a translation app as backup. It’s a general dentistry practice — cleanings, fillings, the usual — without any obvious specialist focus. Ota Ward is far enough from central Tokyo that this clinic makes most sense if you’re living or working in the area, not worth a long commute from Shinjuku. The ground-floor location in a residential complex is easy to spot but not particularly landmark-adjacent. Overall: a local clinic with some English awareness, best suited for expats already in the Ota area.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback points to a calm, unhurried practice with thorough explanations — typical of smaller neighborhood dental offices in Tokyo. Wait times appear reasonable. The dentist is described as methodical and gentle, which matters when you’re already anxious about a language barrier. No reports of rushed appointments. The residential building setting keeps things low-key. Not a flashy clinic, but patients seem to leave knowing what was done and why.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
