Mr Kosuge is pleased to announce that his patient outcome data has been updated on his website. Mr Kosuge values patient feedback and outcome data as it enables him to develop his hip and knee clinical practice. Specifically, he collects patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) for patients who have undergone hip replacement and knee replacement surgery under his care.

In addition to this, Mr Kosuge collects ‘Friends & Family’ and patient experience data through patient questionnaires. Below are some of the recent feedback Mr Kosuge has received from his patients:

‘Mr Kosuge is an exceptionally meticulous and caring Consultant who not only listened, patiently, to my concerns about the healing process subsequent to surgery but also took appropriate measures to expedite my recovery.’

‘I felt that he cared about me, nothing was too much trouble and there was always time for me.’

‘Mr Kosuge has operated on both my hips now and both operations went really well, with quick recovery times. He is very easy to talk to and explained all my options well to help me make the right decisions.’

Please feel free to browse Mr Kosuge’s outcome page for more information. If you have a hip or knee problem and would like to see a specialist, please do not hesitate to book a consultation with Mr Kosuge.

Mr Kosuge is pleased to announce publication of two further leaflets to add to his library of patient information leaflets:

• Hamstring Injury - commoner in patients who frequently sprint, jump of lunge, this is an injury that can range from a mild sprain to a complete tear. The key to successful treatment is based on a dedicated rehabilitation programme.

• Quadriceps Tendinopathy - an overuse injury that presents with pain above your kneecap most noticeably with exercises. Whilst the quadriceps tendon works in tandem with the patellar tendon as part of the mechanism that straightens your knee, quadriceps tendinopathy must not be confused with patella tendinopathy.

Mr Kosuge continues to value patient feedback and below were received recently::

‘In November I had my second hip replacement with Mr Kosuge. The first was back in January 2022 and I felt that went really well and I recovered quickly. This second one went even more smoothly. I was a day patient at Rivers so went in at 7am and was back out at 7pm (my choice to be a day patient). Mr Kosuge was again excellent in his approach to me, explaining my options and more importantly his skills as a surgeon. I was walking without aides within 2 weeks and within 4 weeks I'm out taking the dogs for a walk. Amazing! Would definitely recommend Mr Kosuge if you are unfortunate enough to need a replacement.’

‘Mr Kosuge put me at ease from day one of meeting him. He is the most kindest surgeon I have met. Nothing is too much trouble for him. He cares for each patient as if they are the only one. My knee replacement has been a huge success and has given me my life back. I can’t thank him enough.’
