Understanding Hernia Repair & Who’s a Candidate
A hernia occurs when an organ or tissue pushes through a weak spot in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue, creating a noticeable bulge. The most common types are inguinal (groin), hiatal (upper stomach), umbilical (belly button) and ventral/epigastric (abdominal wall). Symptoms can include pain, discomfort when lifting, or a visible bulge that worsens over time.
Our surgeons perform two primary types of hernia repair:
You may be a good candidate for hernia repair if you experience discomfort, pain or a growing bulge, or if your hernia limits daily activities. People with uncontrolled medical conditions, untreated infections or who are pregnant may not be eligible. During your consultation, our surgeons will review your health history and imaging to recommend the best treatment option.
