KOYAMA SEIKEIGEKA

Koyama Seikeigeka is a neighborhood orthopedic clinic in Kokubunji, a quiet residential part of western Tokyo along the Chuo Line. It handles the usual orthopedic workload — joint pain, back problems, fractures, sports injuries, rehabilitation. The clinic has some English on its website, which is a decent sign, but don’t walk in expecting a bilingual reception desk. This is a local Japanese clinic serving a local Japanese community. If your Japanese is minimal, bring a translation app or a Japanese-speaking friend for anything beyond pointing at where it hurts. That said, orthopedics lends itself to physical examination and imaging — a lot of what happens doesn’t require fluent conversation. For expats living in the Kokubunji or Kunitachi area who need to get a knee or shoulder looked at without trekking into central Tokyo, this is a practical, accessible option. Manage your expectations on English, and it’s probably fine.
