During my follow-up visits, he continued to provide exceptional care, always ensuring I was comfortable and informed. I highly recommend Dr. Vikranth for anyone in need of medical care.”

She had such an in-depth knowledge about the subject that I was totally impressed and decided to undergo the surgery. She arranged for a telephonic conversation with Dr. Piyush Gulabrao Nikam in this connection. Even being on leave due to dengue, Suman took all the necessary pain starting from doctor consultation to surgery in a very disciplined and commendable manner. On the other hand, Mr. Dhiraj Singh of Pristyne Care took all the necessary steps during the hospitalisation and also insurance claim process. He was physically there during the entire procedure till the time of my discharge. I truly salute the amount of hardwork, dedication and professionalism that these two persons have shown. In my opinion Pristyne Care will go a long way in the medical sector in the years to come. Thank you Pristyne Care and wish you all the best for the future”

He was very dedicated to his work and also ensured constantly that I did not have any problems. I would recommend Archit 10/10 as a personal coordinator to anyone coming to Prystin Care. Post my procedure, I had Kazim who helped me with the documents processing and discharge related procedure. Kazim was very approachable and helped me process my discharge the quickest he could. He was present every step of the way and also coordinated with the hospital staff very well. Kudos to the Prystincare team for making this process an extremely smooth and comfortable one. I would definitely recommend it to anyone I know who may want to get a similar procedure done. Coming to my concerns - 1. I would wish you re-evaluate your pricing for the recommended procedures along with the hospital. I don’t mind paying 500rs extra than what was assured to me but it helps a customer trust you more if the expectation is set correct since the beginning. 2. I was requested to shift my room to another in order to accommodate another Prystincare patient. Although I didn’t mind shifting, the place i shifted to, I couldn’t rest properly due to another patient’s condition and ended up having been awake almost the entire night. Please let the patients know beforehand about the hospital they will be going to and the type of accommodation there so that nobody has to shift their bed post a procedure to be ‘accommodating’. Else have an option for a room upgrade with added cost for those who may not be okay sharing a room with two patient beds. That’s it! Thank you to the Prystin care team again!”

Top Hernia Surgeons in India
Who is a Hernia Surgeon?
A hernia surgeon is a general surgeon who specialises in diagnosing and treating hernias. To put it simply, a hernia occurs when an organ or fatty tissue squeezes through a weak spot in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue. The general surgeons are exceptionally well trained and equipped with the latest surgical techniques for repairing these hernias and preventing complications such as strangulation or incarceration.
Hernia Surgeons in India are equipped with the skills and knowledge to perform surgical procedures aimed at repairing hernias and preventing complications such as strangulation (cutting off the blood supply) or incarceration (being trapped). They diagnose the type of hernia, plan an appropriate treatment strategy, perform the surgical repair and provide post-surgery care to enhance recovery. This wide range of skills makes them an invaluable part of the medical fraternity.
What medical conditions do Hernia Surgeons treat?
Hernia Surgeons treat a variety of conditions related to hernias. These include:
- Inguinal hernias: Occurring in the groin area, these are the most common type of hernia.
- Femoral hernias: These hernias occur just below the groin in the upper thigh and can be repaired using open or laparoscopic techniques.
- Umbilical hernias: Common in infants and children, these hernias occur around the belly button. If they do not resolve on their own, surgical intervention is required.
- Incisional hernias: These occur at a previous surgical incision site. Their repair prevents complications like bowel obstruction.
- Hiatal hernias: These hernias occur when part of the stomach protrudes into the chest cavity through the diaphragm. Laparoscopic procedures are generally used to treat these.
- Achalasia: A rare condition where food movement into the stomach is impaired due to loss of esophagus function. Hernia Surgeons treat this with laparoscopic cardiomyotomy.
- Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD): This condition is characterised by frequent reflux of stomach acid into the esophagus. Hernia Surgeons treat GERD with laparoscopic fundoplication.
When should you consult a Hernia Surgeon?
The presence of certain signs and symptoms warrants a consultation with a Hernia doctor. You should consider visiting a Hernia Surgeon if you experience:
- Presence of a bulge or lump: If you notice a bulge or lump in areas like your groin, abdomen, or other parts where hernias commonly occur, it’s essential to have it evaluated.
- Pain or discomfort: Persistent pain, particularly when lifting heavy objects, coughing, or straining during bowel movements, may indicate a hernia.
- Difficulty swallowing or heartburn: Symptoms like these are associated with hiatal hernias and call for a consultation with a Hernia Surgeon.
- Sudden, severe pain: Alongside nausea, vomiting, or an un-retractable bulge, this could indicate a strangulated or incarcerated hernia requiring immediate medical attention.
- Recurrent hernias: If you’ve had a hernia repaired before and it has reappeared, it’s crucial to consult a Hernia Surgeon to determine the best course of action.
What are the diagnostic techniques used by Hernia Surgeons?
Hernia surgeons, or hernia doctors, utilise a variety of diagnostic techniques to accurately identify and evaluate different types of hernias. These techniques aid in observing the size, location, and characteristics of the hernias which further guides the treatment plan. Key diagnostic procedures include:
- Pelvic Computed Tomography (CT): CT scans offer detailed images of the pelvic area, assisting Hernia Surgeons in recognising the presence of a hernia and evaluating its size and location.
- Ultrasonography (USG): This imaging technique is widely used by Hernia Surgeons to visualise hernias and assess their features. It can help detect contralateral asymptomatic occult hernias which aids in making treatment decisions.
- Computed Tomography Volumetric Measurements: This technique uses CT scans to measure the volume of specific structures, assisting in predicting the operative techniques required for paraesophageal hernia repair.
- Total Extraperitoneal (TEP) Laparoscopic Technique: Hernia Surgeons often use laparoscopic techniques like TEP to repair inguinal hernias. Studies indicate that proficiency in TEP is associated with a learning curve, assessed using outcomes and operative times.
- Transinguinal Diagnostic Laparoscopy: In pediatric cases, this technique can be utilised during herniorrhaphy to assess the contralateral groin. It guides surgical decision-making in pediatric inguinal hernias.
What are the different types of procedures conducted by a Hernia Surgeon?
A Hernia Surgeon in India performs a variety of procedures tailored to repair different types of hernias. The choice of procedure depends on several factors such as type and location of a hernia, the patient’s overall health condition, and the general surgeon‘s expertise. The procedures include:
- Open Hernia Repair: This involves making an incision near the hernia, pushing the protruding tissue back into place, and securing the area with stitches.
- Laparoscopic Hernia Repair: Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair is a minimally invasive surgery where small incisions and a camera are used to repair the hernia with mesh. This method typically results in less post-operative pain and quicker recovery compared to open surgery.
- Non-Mesh Inguinal Herniorrhaphy: In areas with limited medical resources, Hernia Surgeons often perform open non-mesh inguinal hernia repairs. Antibiotic prophylaxis significantly reduces the risk of surgical site infections in these cases.
- Total Extraperitoneal (TEP) Repair: A laparoscopic technique used to repair inguinal hernias. It is associated with a steep learning curve; hence, surgeons assess their proficiency through outcomes and operative times.
- Transabdominal Preperitoneal (TAPP) Repair: Another laparoscopic technique for inguinal hernia repair. Both TEP and TAPP have been compared to open repair techniques in systematic reviews and meta-analyses.
- Hiatal Hernia Repair: This procedure treats hiatal hernias to improve the patient’s quality of life. Surgeons often perform laparoscopic procedures like fundoplication for treatment.
Why should you visit a Hernia Surgeon?
The expertise of top Hernia Surgeons in India is crucial for diagnosing and treating various types of hernias. Here are some reasons why consulting a Hernia Surgeon is essential:
- Accurate diagnosis: Hernia Surgeons accurately diagnose hernias through physical examinations and diagnostic tests like ultrasound and CT scans.
- Tailored treatment plans: Based on the type of hernia, its severity, and individual patient factors, Hernia Surgeons recommend the most appropriate treatment plan, including open or laparoscopic hernia repair procedures.
- Prevention of complications: Prompt intervention by a Hernia Surgeon can prevent severe complications associated with hernias such as bowel obstruction and strangulation. Hernia repair surgeries aim to strengthen the weakened area and reduce the risk of recurrence.
- Specialised care: Hernia Surgeons possess specialised training in hernia repair techniques and are updated on the latest advancements in the field. Consulting a Hernia Surgeon ensures you receive expert care tailored to your specific condition and needs.
- Postoperative care: Hernia Surgeons provide postoperative care to monitor your recovery, manage any complications, and ensure optimal healing. They also offer guidance on lifestyle modifications and preventive measures to reduce the risk of developing or recurrent hernias.
While hernias can be challenging to manage, they can be effectively addressed with timely intervention. Booking an appointment with a Hernia Surgeon in India at the earliest convenience can positively impact the treatment outcomes.
FAQs
- What qualifications should a top hernia surgeon in India possess?
A top hernia surgeon in India should have a minimum of an MBBS degree, followed by a Master in General Surgery (MS). Further specialisation in gastrointestinal or laparoscopic surgery is often required. Membership or fellowship of prestigious surgical societies is a testimony of their expertise and contribution to the field.
- What is the recovery period after a hernia operation performed by a top hernia surgeon in India?
The recovery period after a hernia operation differs based on the type of surgery (open surgery or laparoscopic surgery), the patient’s overall health, and the post-operative care provided. Generally, patients can resume normal activities within a few weeks, but complete healing may take a few months. Regular follow-ups with the surgeon are crucial during this period.
- What is the role of a general surgeon in treating hernia?
A general surgeon, specialised in the treatment of hernia, is responsible for diagnosing the type and severity of the hernia, deciding on the most suitable treatment approach, performing the surgery, and overseeing post-operative care.
- Do all hernias require surgery?
Not all hernias require surgical intervention. Some small or asymptomatic hernias may be managed with watchful waiting or lifestyle modifications. However, if a hernia increases in size, becomes painful, or leads to complications (like becoming strangulated), surgery performed by an experienced hernia surgeon is typically recommended.
