Schedule NowPatient-Centered Approach to Care
Our patient-centered approach offers the latest surgical techniques, with less discomfort and shorter recovery times. We develop individualized treatment plans for each patient based on the type and severity of the hernia. Prior to surgery, each patient receives a complete health assessment. If weight loss or smoking cessation are advised before surgery, we provide the tools and resources needed for a successful outcome.
Throughout your care, our multidisciplinary team of physicians maintains ongoing communication with you and any referring physicians. We frequently collaborate with our colleagues in colorectal surgery, urology and plastic surgery for patients with complex hernias.
Leaders in Hernia Research
Our surgeons are committed to providing cutting-edge hernia treatment and advancing the field of hernia surgery. We lead clinical research to continuously improve hernia treatments and track patient outcomes through the Abdominal Core Health Quality Collaborative (ACHQC). Our surgeons have published research about hernia techniques and treatment and have presented on hernia-related topics at national meetings.
