OGAWA GEN SHIKAIIN
Ogawa Gen Shikaiin is a small dental clinic sitting on the ground floor of the Genbee Building in Nihonbashi Tomizawacho, Chuo Ward. It’s a neighborhood practice — not a big expat-facing clinic with English-speaking staff at the ready. The website has some English content, which suggests awareness of foreign patients, but don’t assume you’ll walk in and have a smooth English conversation at the front desk. Bring a translation app or a Japanese-speaking friend if your Japanese is limited. That said, basic dental work — cleanings, fillings, routine checkups — doesn’t require a ton of back-and-forth, and many dentists in Japan can muddle through with written communication and pointing at X-rays. Nihonbashi is a well-connected, easy-to-navigate part of central Tokyo. If you live or work in Chuo, this could be a convenient local option for straightforward dental care.
Patient Feedback
No substantial public review data is available for this clinic. Based on its profile — a small, ground-floor neighborhood dental practice in a business-heavy part of Chuo — expect a quiet, no-frills experience. Likely shorter wait times than larger urban dental chains. The doctor appears to run a traditional solo or small-team practice. Patients comfortable with limited Japanese interaction or using translation tools should manage fine for routine visits.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
