I saw Mr. Kim in 2011 with right hip problems, I was using crutches and wheelchair. My hip replacement of 2009 (carried out in Australia had failed) and Mr Kim did the reconstruction, bone graft etc., in January 2012. His care and attention was second to none. I had my left hip replacement in August this year and again he was marvellous. I would recommend him to anyone.
Mr Kim is extremely pleasant, with a lovely smile which puts you at ease straight away. He explains things well, ensuring you have a thorough understanding of what you are going to have done.
Post operatively he was encouraging and always willing to discuss anything with you even once discharged.
I cannot praise Mr Kim highly enough. He is warm,caring and obviously highly proficient.....all the qualities one seeks in a consultant but all too rarely finds. I really felt he listened to me and understood how I was feeling...I had complete confidence in him at all times. Six months after hip surgery I am free from pain and can get on with my life.
Many thanks to Mr Kim and his team for the care both before and during my operation.
The operation has given me a new lease of life now that I am no longer experiencing
severe in my hip. Mr Kim was extremely supportive and attentive throughout, and I
would recommend him unreservedly to anyone looking for hip surgery.

I cannot recommend Mr Kim highly enough. He is the most attentive, warm and approachable Consultant I met during my search to find a surgeon to perform my
hip operation and, being nervous about it, I had consultations with four others.
Mr Kim explained the procedure thoroughly and discussed the type of hip joints available, taking my preferences into consideration, when advising me. His surgical skill in replacing my hip has left me pain-free, and able to resume my normal (and very hectic) way of life without restriction. His aftercare has also been first-class too.
