  • Many staff speak Chinese
  • Convenient location near Shinsaibashi
  • Ookuni G Building Shinsaibashi (大國藥局Gビル心斎橋) is a pharmacy and drugstore in Osaka, not a traditional medical facility. This establishment functions primarily as a retail healthcare provider where you can purchase medications, health products, and personal care items. The store has earned a strong reputation with a 4.5/5 star rating from 54 reviews. What distinguishes this pharmacy is its multilingual staff, with numerous Chinese-speaking employees providing assistance to international customers. The store offers competitive pricing on healthcare products and maintains a convenient location in the Shinsaibashi area of Osaka. Staff members actively engage with customers, taking the initiative to inquire about their needs and provide personalized recommendations. While most reviews highlight positive experiences, one negative review mentioned an incident with a staff member criticizing a customer’s appearance. For visitors to Osaka seeking healthcare products with language support beyond Japanese, Ookuni serves as an accessible option for purchasing medications and health supplies.

    Patient Feedback

    Customer reviews consistently highlight three key strengths: competitive pricing, convenient location, and helpful multilingual staff. Many reviewers specifically praise the Chinese-speaking employees who provide friendly service and proactively assist customers. The store receives particular recommendation from Chinese-speaking visitors who appreciate the language support. One negative review mentioned a staff member who allegedly criticized a customer’s appearance while trying to sell products, but this appears to be an isolated incident among otherwise positive feedback.

    English Language Proficiency

    No reviews specifically mention English language support at Ookuni G Building Shinsaibashi. Multiple reviews confirm Chinese language capabilities with statements like "almost half of the staff in this store are Chinese speakers" and "the store clerk can speak Chinese." However, English capability is unconfirmed as no reviewers comment on English-speaking staff or services. Visitors requiring English assistance should not assume it is available based on the current review information.
