Join our expert general surgeons as they provide education about hernias and treatment options, including minimally invasive robotic technology using the da Vinci surgical system. Directly following the education will be a free hernia screening, so register today! Screenings will be performed by Dr. Fahy and Dr. Bruck, General Surgeons. What is a hernia? The abdomen consists of various layers of strong tissues that help with movement and protect our internal organs. A hernia is a gap in this muscular wall that allows contents inside the abdomen to protrude outward. There are different types of hernias, but the most common hernias often occur in the belly or groin. Are you experiencing any of the symptoms of a hernia? Learn more about the signs and symptoms of a hernia and what treatment option is right for you.
