OOOKAYAMA SEIKEIGEKA

Oookayama Seikeigeka is an orthopedic clinic sitting on the ground floor of a building in Kita-Senzoku, Ota Ward — walking distance from Oookayama Station on the Tokyu Oimachi and Meguro lines. It handles the usual orthopedic workload: joint pain, back problems, sports injuries, fractures, rehabilitation. The clinic has some English on its website, which suggests they’re at least aware that non-Japanese speakers exist. Whether that translates into a smooth in-person English experience is a different question — this is a neighborhood orthopedic clinic in a residential part of Tokyo, not an international medical center. Come prepared with a translation app and your symptoms written down in Japanese if possible. That said, orthopedics is one of the more expat-navigable specialties — you can point to where it hurts, imaging speaks for itself, and treatment plans are often straightforward to communicate across a language gap.
