Overview

Understanding Hernia Surgery

A hernia occurs when an organ pushes through a weakness in the muscle wall. Hernias don't heal on their own and usually require surgery. At Navya Hospital, our surgeons perform both laparoscopic (minimally invasive) and open hernia repair with faster recovery times.
