■To everyone

My name is Yohei Yukizawa, and I have been working here since April 2016. I belong to the Medical Department of Yokohama City University Orthopedic Surgery, but this year I will be doing a special training at our hospital. Among orthopedic surgeons, I have specialized in the hip joint area for some time. Our hospital specializes in sports plastic surgery and arthroscopic surgery, but the number of hip arthroscopic surgeries is very large compared to other facilities, and many doctors from Japan and abroad come to study. I am one of them, and my goal is to acquire hip arthroscopy techniques and cutting-edge knowledge. Although I am young, I will do my best to help the treatment of many patients.
