Hernias are common. An estimated 5 million Americans have hernias. But only 700,000 have them surgically repaired each year. Why?
Some hernias don't cause symptoms and no treatment is needed. But if you are experiencing discomfort and pain, we can help. You don't have to avoid treating your hernia out of fear of surgery and a lengthy recovery. Today's hernia surgeries are frequently performed on an outpatient basis and you can return to normal activity quickly.
