Kumegawa Seikeigeka

Kumegawa Seikeigeka is an orthopedic clinic on the third floor of the Seiko Building in Higashimurayama, a quieter residential pocket of western Tokyo. They handle the usual orthopedic workload — joint pain, back problems, sports injuries, fractures, post-surgical rehab. The clinic has some English content on its website, which is a decent sign, but don’t assume that means a bilingual receptionist is waiting for you. Full English service is unconfirmed, so bring a translation app or a Japanese-speaking friend if you’re not comfortable navigating a clinic visit in Japanese. That said, orthopedic appointments often involve pointing at things and looking at scans, which makes communication slightly less painful than, say, a psychiatric consultation. It’s a local neighborhood clinic — not a foreigner-friendly international hospital — so set expectations accordingly. Good for expats living in or near Higashimurayama who need convenient musculoskeletal care without trekking into central Tokyo.
