Hernia and gall bladder surgery

The Hernia and Gallbladder Centre is a group of highly trained specialist surgeons providing treatment and care for all routine and complex hernia and gallbladder problems using a variety of modern techniques including minimally invasive 'keyhole' (laparoscopic) surgery which may significantly reduce the amount of time spent in hospital and help promote a quicker recovery period.

We are able to provide top quality, affordable patient care, from diagnosis to treatment and rehabilitation with a single point of referral, short waiting times, and with appointment and treatment times to suit the patient.

The hospital benefits from on-site X-ray, MRI, CT, ultrasound and works closely with GPs to ensure they are kept up-to-date with the very latest in treatment technology.

Conditions treated and procedures routinely carried out include:

• Ventral / epigastric hernias
• Umbilical hernias
• Spigelian hernias
• Inguinal hernias
• Femoral hernias
• Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal)
