Mr Winston Kim

I am an experienced hip and knee specialist in full time private practice focused on treatment of arthritic conditions of the hip and knee. My main surgical practice is MAKO robot-assisted hip, knee and partial knee replacements, considered by many to be leading-edge technology in hip and knee replacement surgery.

I have the privilege of performing the largest number of MAKO robot-arm assisted hip and knee replacements in the United Kingdom*, with more than 1,200 robot-assisted hip and knee and total hip replacements (almost equal split of hip and knee replacements, Jan 2025 data) and have performed more than 2,000 conventional hip and knee replacements. I have pioneered Robotic-Assisted lower limb surgery in the North West, being the first to perform the triad of robotic-assisted total hip, total knee and partial knee replacements.

After graduating from the University of Aberdeen in 1996, I completed my orthopaedic training in the North West rotation, obtaining the FRCS (Orth). My year-long sub-specialist training was in Vancouver at Clive Duncan's Unit at UBC, Canada. I was the recipient of the British Orthopaedic Foundation Travelling Fellowship award, visiting the world-renowned Mayo Clinic, Minnesota and the Hospital of Surgery (HSS) in New York, USA.

I am in full-time private practice (since 2017) and have a team of secretaries, practice manager, clinical assistants, anaesthetists dedicated to responding promptly and compassionately to any queries before and after consultations, before and after surgery. My practice has a heavy emphasis on the most appropriate decision making, tailored to the individual patient, outcome analysis and feedback from patients care from a multidisciplinary team. The goal is to ensure the best possible care and outcome for each patient, every time. I have invested heavily in infrastructure and staff to facilitate these aspirations.
