About Us
Advanced Robotic Surgery
The latest advancement in hernia surgery has been the use of robotic surgical systems like the daVinci robot. The wristed instruments, improved image stability, and 3 dimensional image magnification are allowing our surgeons to perform complex hernia surgeries through tiny incisions. Our hernia surgeons have been using daVinci robots for minimally invasive surgeries since 2004. As a result, our patients have less complications, faster recoveries and more durable repairs.
Experience & Dedication Matters
Our hernia surgeons are recognized leaders and pioneers in advanced treatment for hernias. We are the only Intuitive Surgical Hernia Mentor Site program in the Bay Area. We host surgeons for case observations, proctor surgeons who are learning advanced hernia repairs, and conduct hernia courses.
A Personal Approach
There are more than 40,000 ways to fix hernias. You deserve an experienced hernia surgeon who can tailor the operation to your needs regardless of the complexity or type of hernia. We are experts at groin hernia surgery, hiatal hernia surgery, umbilical hernia surgery and incisional hernia surgery.
Minimally Invasive
Have you been told you need an "open" operation through a large incision? We perform even the most complex hernia surgeries through incisions only 5-8mm (1/4"-1/3") long.
Ventral (umbilical & incisional) hernias
These can be some of the most challenging hernias to fix. The first operation is frequently your best opportunity for a durable repair.
Groin Hernia Surgery
Our experts focus on minimally invasive surgery & rapid recovery. By offering robotic-assisted surgeries we have seen our patients use 80% less narcotics (opioids) after surgery.
