Suruga-Oyama Station (駿河小山駅 Suruga-Oyama-eki?) is a railway station on the Gotemba Line in the western part of Oyama, Shizuoka, Japan, operated by Central Japan Railway Company (JR Central).

Suruga-Oyama Station is served by the Gotemba Line. In addition to regular train service, a number of the limited express Asagiri services stop at this station.

The station consists of a single island platform serving two tracks. The station building is to the south of the tracks and connected to the platform with overpass. This station is unmanned.

The station initially opened on February 1, 1889, as Oyama Station (小山駅?) It was renamed Suruga Station (駿河駅?) on July 1, 1912. When the opening of the Tanna Tunnel diverted the route of the Tōkaidō Main Line south on December 1, 1934, Suruga Station became a station on the Gotemba Line. It was renamed Suruga-Oyama Station (the present name) on January 1, 1952. Operational control of the station was transferred to JR Central following privatization of JNR on April 1, 1987.
