  • Ozawa Clinic is a dental practice in Nerima Ward, sitting on the second floor of the Aoyamado Building in Sakae-cho. Nerima isn’t exactly expat central, so if you’re heading out here, you probably live nearby or got a specific recommendation. The clinic has some English content on their website, which is a decent sign — it means they’re at least aware that non-Japanese patients exist. That said, don’t assume you’ll walk in and have a full English conversation with reception. Come prepared with your Japanese address, insurance card, and ideally a note explaining your symptoms. The website gives a reasonable sense of their services and approach. For routine dental work — checkups, cleaning, fillings — this is a solid neighborhood option. If you have complex treatment needs and need everything explained in fluent English, you may want to call ahead first or have a Japanese-speaking friend confirm the situation before booking.

    Patient Feedback

    Patient feedback points to a straightforward neighborhood dental clinic — no frills, gets the job done. People seem to appreciate the relatively calm, unhurried atmosphere compared to busier central Tokyo practices. Wait times appear reasonable for a local clinic. The dentist is described as thorough and not rushed. Nothing flashy, but consistent. The kind of place regulars stick with for years rather than a destination clinic.

    English Language Proficiency

    The clinic has English content on its website, which suggests some international awareness. But actual in-clinic English ability is unconfirmed. Reception may have limited English, and the dentist's level is unknown. If your Japanese is minimal, bring a translation app, have your symptoms written down in Japanese, and carry your health insurance card. Don't expect English forms. A bilingual friend helping you call ahead would save a lot of guesswork.
