Patient Reviews
Dec 19, 2019
I'm 66 and had surgery for inguinal hernia 16 weeks ago by Dr. Hernando and am so glad I finally had done. I waited nearly 5 years avoiding surgery , big mistake. When another illness made the hernia a much bigger issue to deal with I realized I should have had it fixed early on. Dr. Hernando did a fantastic job in every way . He's the best and did the robotic type surgery which you have to look really hard to even notice anything was done and that was just 16 weeks back. I feel fantastic and am doing sprints and back at the gym anticipating skiing this season. If I need something done in the future , I will go to only him. He is absolutely the man to see.
