Nearly 5 million people in the U.S. are living with an abdominal
wall hernia.
Many people still believe that hernia repair involves difficult
and invasive surgery that requires an overnight hospital stay
and a painful recovery that can last for weeks or even months.
However, new treatment options exist today that can make hernia
repair faster and more effective. With today's advanced treatment
options, hernias can often be repaired in less than an hour.
Patients typically go home the same day!
Houston Hernia Center is now one of the largest surgical
practices in the country to focus on hernia repair; many hernias
are now repaired successfully by 20 minute outpatient procedures.
One advanced treatment option includes the use of a synthetic
mesh device that can repair a hernia from both the inside
and outside of the abdominal wall. Reflecting the practice's
expanding focus on
advanced forms of hernia repair, Houston Hernia Center recently
established a new Center of Excellence in Hernia Repair.
Our center is Exceptional and Affordable. We offer 0% financing for those without insurance.
"Hernias continue to be a major health
problem for millions of Americans. By developing a special
expertise to address this critical need, Houston Hernia Center
is bringing all of the most advanced and effective treatment
options for hernias to patients throughout Houston, Texas."
