This is my second hip replacement as I had my other hip replaced approximately 8 years ago by another surgeon and whilst that was a success when it came time to replace my other hip I researched if the methods of replacement had changed. I found that America had advanced with different methods more than the UK had and after speaking to a number of Americans that had their hip joints replaced by the new methods I found that the common result was better recovery times. So I went about researching the UK surgeons to see which had moved on in the same manner and I struggled to find any but this is where Mr Kim came in as he had moved forward and used what I would say 50% old method and 50% new method. After choosing him to do the operation I can tell you with experience that his method did improve my recovery time tremendously to the point of, less recovery pain, I was walking without any aids after two weeks and driving comfortably after three weeks. I cannot recommend him enough, his manner, his technique, his aftercare was excellent. Jim McKenna
