Yusima Shika Kumegawa
Yusima Shika Kumegawa is a dental clinic in Higashi-Murayama, sitting on the ground floor of the Riches Kumegawa building on Sakae-cho. It’s part of the Yushima Dental group, which has a website with some English content — a decent sign that they’re at least aware international patients exist. That said, full English-language service at the chair isn’t confirmed, so don’t expect a fluent bilingual consultation without some prep work.
The clinic covers standard dental care — cleanings, fillings, check-ups — and the group branding suggests a reasonably modern setup. Higashi-Murayama is suburban Tokyo, far from the expat-heavy central wards, so this isn’t a clinic built around foreign patients. But if you live out in the Seibu Haijima or Seibu Shinjuku line corridor, it’s a practical local option rather than commuting into Shinjuku for a dentist. Bring a translation app and have your insurance details written out in Japanese if possible. The website is worth checking before you go — it gives a clearer picture of current services.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback on this specific branch is limited online in English. The Yushima group generally gets reasonable marks for clean facilities and straightforward care. Expect a fairly typical Japanese dental clinic experience — efficient, appointment-driven, not much small talk. Wait times tend to be manageable when you book ahead. Nothing flashy, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing for routine dental work.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
