When can I drive?

You can drive one week after surgery if you are off of narcotics and have minimal pain.  

I live out of town and was interested in surgery. What is the process of having surgery at your facility?

You will have your consultation on Monday, Tuesday or Thursday and then have blood work and EKG after your consultation. You will then have surgery the next day on Tuesday Wednesday or Friday. We recommend that you stay the night and have someone drive you home in the morning if you live in Florida. We have had patients driven home after the surgery if they live 2-3 hours from Fort Myers. They are instructed to walk around at a rest stop half way home to encourage circulation to the lower extremities. If you live out of state we recommend you stay for 2-3 days and leave after your postoperative appointment.  

Will I have general anesthesia or IV sedation for my surgery?

Majority of cases are done with local (inguinal block) and intravenous sedation. General anesthesia is used if the patient is obese, the hernia is extremely large or patient requests general anesthesia  

How will my incision be closed?

All inguinal and umbilical incisions will be closed with absorbable sutures. No staples are used. No stainless steel wire is used as in the shouldice hernia repair.
