Midori Naika Clinic
Midori Naika Clinic is a general internal medicine clinic in Kokubunji-adjacent Kodaira, a quieter residential part of western Tokyo. It handles the everyday stuff — chronic disease management, checkups, colds, hypertension, diabetes follow-ups — the kind of ongoing care expats often struggle to find a reliable home for.
The clinic has some English content on its website, which is a decent sign, but don’t assume you’ll walk in and have a full English consultation waiting for you. Reality is probably mixed — some basic communication may be possible, but bring a translation app or a Japanese-speaking friend if your medical situation is complicated. This isn’t a dedicated expat clinic.
Location-wise, Kodaira isn’t central Tokyo, so this one makes most sense if you’re already living in the Musashino or Tama area. If you’re commuting from Shinjuku just for a doctor’s visit, there are closer options worth checking first.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback points to a calm, no-frills clinic that doesn’t feel rushed. Doctors are described as methodical and willing to explain things. Wait times are generally reasonable for a neighborhood practice. It has the feel of a local family doctor rather than a busy urban clinic — which is either exactly what you want or not quite enough, depending on your needs.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
