Hernia Repair

A hernia is a medical condition in which a part of an organ is displaced and protrudes through its cavity wall due to muscle weakness or strain.

Types of Hernia Repair Procedures

Our skilled surgeons offer both minimally invasive and traditional hernia repair techniques to ensure the most effective treatment for your condition.

Laparoscopic Hernia Repair: This minimally invasive procedure involves small incisions through which a camera and specialized surgical instruments are inserted. This technique offers reduced recovery time, minimal scarring, and faster return to normal activities.

Open Hernia Repair: For more complex hernias or cases requiring direct access to the affected area, we offer open hernia repair. This method allows surgeons to carefully reinforce the weakened abdominal wall using surgical mesh or stitches.

Inguinal Hernia Repair: The most common type of hernia, inguinal hernias occur in the lower abdominal area. Our team specializes in safe and effective treatment options for this condition.

Umbilical Hernia Repair: This procedure addresses hernias that develop near the navel, which can be common in infants but may also occur in adults.

What to Expect During Hernia Surgery

Your comfort and safety are our top priorities. During your consultation, our surgical team will assess your condition and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan. We will explain the procedure, discuss the recovery process, and answer any questions you may have.

Hernia repair is typically performed as an outpatient procedure, meaning most patients can return home the same day. Our team will provide detailed post-operative care instructions to promote healing and minimize discomfort.
