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.

One of the best doctors I've ever worked with.

Dr. Hosono was really friendly and knowledgeable. Felt great about having him care for our child. The one thing I didn't like was that the MA was sniffling, but wasn't wearing a mask

Dr. Hosono is the best doctor we have seen in years. He was knowledgeable, thorough, engaged with my son and me - very efficient and friendly. We highly recommend him - it was a terrific experience. In addition, his staff was exceptionally helpful when we were trying to get the RX filled since it was on back order.

Dioctor takes his time to listed to your question explain you the answer and asked if you understand or need more help. He is always smiling and funny something that my son like from him
Providence Patient
Dr. Hosono is an incredibly skilled physician. He has a real gift for explaining challenging concepts in a rigorous and non-patronizing way that all of us (parents and child) could understand. He is also incredibly responsive. He addressed a concern we had immediately and followed up on an after hours message right away. He looked at lab results immediately and followed up with us so we wouldn't have to be spinning around in uncertainty. He took the time to learn about what interests my child and worked to connect with her about that. He asks, non-medical questions to build rapport in a genuine and authentic way. This provider is a gem.
