By concentrating in hernia repair, The London Hernia Clinic is able to offer the finest treatment possible in all hernia cases. We have performed successful operations on patients:

• who believed once they reached a certain age, an operation was unrealisitic.
• who can't tolerate a general anaesthetic - almost all repairs can be performed under local anaesthetic.
• who experienced a traditional hernia repair in the past, and had avoided a second repair because of the perceived discomfort.

Hernia operations are now the most common operations performed on men in the UK. Recent years have seen great technical advances in these operations: they are more reliable, less painful and recovery is generally speedier.

If you are suffering in any way, you should seriously consider the benefits of an operation: an end to pain, swelling and inconvenience - in addition you will no longer be at risk of a strangulated hernia.
