Had right knee replacement performed by Mr Kim October 2018- very happy with the results of the knee. I heard horror stories from others and feel very luck to have had Mr Kim perform my knee replacement. I have arthritis in the other kne, and I will only have Mr Kim do my knee replacement. Highly recommended..the best.

I found Mr Kim and his staff to be both competent and caring. At my initial consultation I was given the full details of the diagnosis of my hip problem plus the options available. If I decided on a full right hip replacement this was explained in full plus, of course the possible dangers of undergoing surgery of this nature. I opted for surgery and was admitted to hospital quickly on the date I requested. The surgery and recovery has gone well and I am now pain free thanks to the good care I received from Mr Kim and his team.

After having very painful and creaky knees for years I decided after my consultation with Mr Kim to take the plunge at 88 years old and have a knee replacement operation. Mr Kim was marvellous and my new knee is very successful. He was very kind and understanding and filled me with confidence. The first time I went to see him I was in a wheelchair and six weeks after the operation I was able to walk in using a stick. Based on my experience I would definitely recommend Mr Kim but wish I had seen him sooner!

The day of surgery in question, I was totally at ease with him and his team members coming to see me before the procedure. His mannerism and passion in what he does is next to none and would certainly be a recommendation to anyone who needs hip or knee surgery. Definately a credit to his profession.

I have recently seen Mr. Kim after suffering from knee pain in my right knee for around 1 year and he has been a consummate professional throughout. He original diagnosed the problem and recommended conservative treatment initially which helped and when the pain persisted after some time he recommended surgery to sort the issue out. He was very clear and concise in his explanation of the issue and I am now on the road to recovery after a long period of time. I really appreciate his calming manner and is always extremely optimistic and realistic with the outcome, he always put my mind at ease when I had doubts. I can tell that Mr. Kim really wants to support the patient and pinpoint the correct issue for overall well being - I felt valued a cared for throughout my entire experience. I cannot think Winston Kim enough as I was really struggling before, now I am able to enjoy some of the things I was missing out on. His secretary Shabnam and entire team I have dealt with at the Alex from physios to imaging consultants have been top notch and I cannot recommend this enough. If I ever have anymore issues in the future I know where I will go. Thank you!

I cannot speak highly enough of Mr Kim whom I consulted in February regarding both extreme pain in my hip and compromised mobility. He had been recommended to me by another professional on the basis of his skill as a surgeon and on his patient care. This recommendation, if anything, understated his skills. I underwent a total hip replacement in February which has been completely successful. At all stages in the process, Mr Kim could not have been more professional. He was generous with his time, discussing in detail all aspects of the operation and follow-up, offering reassurance and instilling confidence. His skill as a surgeon is undeniable as evidenced by my physical transformation; his positive interaction with his patients is equally undeniable. I remember when I was in hospital, he had been unable to visit on the Friday so he came in on the Saturday, in his own time, and chatted, never once giving me the impression that I had encroached on his weekend. As my knee is now giving trouble, I will have no hesitation in returning to Mr Kim’s fantastic care when the time comes to have a replacement.

My mother, 88, recently underwent a full knee replacement under the care of Mr Kim. From the first consultation Mr Kim's knowledge and professionalism filled us with confidence. I was particularly concerned due to my mother's age.
On the day of the operation we arrived at the Spire Hospital in Manchester at 7am. Pre-operative checks were completed by various staff members, including Mr Kim and by 9am she was on her way to the theatre. By 12noon she was back in her room the operation having been successfully completed.
The after care from the nursing and physio staff at the Spire was exemplary. Mr Kim visited mother every day she was in the hospital except when he was away on a weekend break in the Lake District and even then he telephoned the hospital the check on her status.
It is now four weeks since the operation and my mother is free from pain and recovering well. Many Thanks to Mr Kim for a job very well done.

This was the third operation that Mr Kim had performed..
The previous right hip & knee replacements were a complete success.
This left knee replacement , although only a month post op has been a success too.
Mr Kim was his usual polite & friendly self.
He kept me informed throughout the whole process. I chose not to have any sedationduring the operation & Mr Kim was again informative.
I would definitely recommend Mr Kim as a knee & hip surgeeon& in fact have done so.
Eight years ago when my Dad was 90 years of age Mr Kim performed a TKR on him.
