Podiatric Surgery& Medicine in Ogikubo
Podiatric Surgery & Medicine in Ogikubo (足と歩行のクリニック 荻窪院) is a specialist clinic focused on feet, walking, and related conditions — think bunions, heel pain, gait problems, diabetic foot care, and nail issues. Despite being listed under internal medicine, this is very much a podiatry-focused practice, which is still relatively rare in Japan.
The clinic sits in Ogikubo, Suginami — a quiet, residential part of western Tokyo that’s easy to reach from Ogikubo Station on the Chuo Line. It’s on the ground floor of the NK Building, so no elevator hunting required.
Their website has some English content, which suggests awareness of international patients, but don’t assume you’ll walk in and have a smooth English-language consultation. Come prepared with written notes about your symptoms or use a translation app for anything beyond the basics. Staff willingness is likely there; fluency is uncertain. If your issue is specifically foot-related — and you’ve been struggling to find anyone in Tokyo who actually specializes in this — it’s worth the trip.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback points to a clinic that takes foot problems seriously — not just handing you a painkiller and sending you home. Doctors appear thorough in assessment, sometimes using gait analysis or imaging to get to the root of an issue. Wait times seem reasonable for a specialist clinic. The atmosphere is calm and clinical rather than rushed. Patients with chronic conditions like plantar fasciitis or post-surgery recovery seem to find the specialist focus genuinely useful compared to a standard GP visit.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
