  • Selye Shinjuku Clinic sits on the 6th floor of the Tenma Building in Yoyogi, Shibuya — which, name aside, puts it closer to Shinjuku Station than you might expect. It’s an internal medicine clinic under the medical corporation Koiseikai, so you’re looking at general adult health: checkups, chronic condition management, everyday stuff that doesn’t need a hospital but does need a real doctor.

    The website has some English content, which is a decent sign, but don’t assume you’ll walk in and have a smooth English-language consultation. The actual English capacity on the ground is unclear. If your Japanese is minimal, bring a translation app or a Japanese-speaking friend just in case. That said, internal medicine clinics in this part of Tokyo tend to see international patients with some regularity, so the staff probably won’t panic if you walk in.

    It’s a standard urban clinic setup — not a foreigner-focused expat clinic, but functional and accessible for someone who’s prepared.

    Patient Feedback

    No substantial English-language patient reviews are publicly available for this clinic. That’s not unusual for smaller Japanese internal medicine practices. What the setup suggests: a standard neighborhood clinic experience — likely efficient, probably not long waits, and focused on practical care rather than hand-holding. If you’ve been to a typical Japanese naika before, you know the rhythm. Come with your insurance card and symptoms ready to explain.

    English Language Proficiency

    The clinic has some English-facing web presence, which is more than many local Japanese clinics bother with. But that doesn't confirm bilingual staff at reception or during consultations. Assume Japanese-first until proven otherwise. A translation app like Google Translate or DeepL will help at the desk. If your medical situation is complex or nuanced, bring someone who can translate in person. Forms are almost certainly in Japanese only.
