About Ed Hosono
“I emphasize effective communication in my practice. There is so much information available on the internet,” says Dr. Ed Hosono, M.D. “I believe that evidence-based practice and implementing the safest solution for patients are the most important parts of my care. Each condition affects every patient differently and care should be individualized.”
After graduating with a biomedical engineering degree from Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Dr. Hosono worked as a software engineer at General Electric (GE) Healthcare in Chicago. Although designing and programming computer applications in medicine were captivating, he did not enjoy a working environment of sitting in front of a computer all day. He wanted to solve problems by interacting with people, listening carefully and understanding their concerns and needs. Dr. Hosono’s background in medical technology and passion for improving people’s health led him to the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Medicine. During his fourth year of medical school, he realized that working with children brings him so much joy and motivation. He chose to specialize in pediatric endocrinology because the field is comprised of meticulous biochemical science, advancing technology, and establishing long-term relationships with patients. Dr. Hosono was born and grew up in Japan. He moved to Tuscaloosa, Alabama, as a young teenager. He, his wife, and their son love traveling and trying different cuisines. They enjoy the outdoors and maintain an active lifestyle. He loves all sports and, in his free time, can be found playing or watching ice hockey, basketball, soccer, or going on hikes with his dog Benji.

We really liked Dr. Hosono and are going to miss him. He always took into account what I was saying and collaborated with us to order lab tests, etc. He also has a good bed side manner with patients.

Dr. Hosono is so thorough and kind and considerate. He does an amazing job of looking into things, thinking outside the box and working to truly help his patients, all in a very friendly, easy to approach way!

Dr Hosono is amazing. He is smart, caring, knowledgeable and efficient. He explains everything clearly and talks directly to my son in a very respectful way. I highly recommend him.

Love Dr.Hosono! He is super patient and listens and explains everything in an easy manner to understand. He makes you feel comfortable, great bed side manners and very knowledgeable on every thing we asked. Never seen such a well mannered doctor in my life so far, who actually cares for his patients. Not just that, he walks you out, hands off to the receptionist, waits to see if we are still comfortable and says good bye like a friend. Highly recommend him to anyone who needs to see pediatric endocrinologist!

Dr. Hosono has gone above and beyond to ensure my child was on a prescription medication we wanted. Our insurance put him through the wringer and he kept at it until it was resolved.

Great provider, always has a smile. Makes sure both I and my 12 year old son understand what he's talking about. Love how he describes everything to my son so well. Makes him feel included Wich he should, it's his body.
