Complete Care for Hernia Repair

At the Connecticut Comprehensive Center for Hernia Repair, a team of highly-skilled specialists provides today’s most advanced management of all types of hernias, including both traditional and minimally-invasive surgical options.

We work with each patient to determine the best surgical option. Emphasis is placed on a durable and lasting repair while reducing discomfort and ensuring a fast and complete recovery. In addition, our multidisciplinary team provides a variety of non-surgical support services to help hernia patients quit smoking, achieve nutrition and weight loss goals, and facilitate postoperative pain management.

Our surgeons use the newest prosthetic materials (meshes) during surgery to help reduce pain and promote speedy healing. As faculty of a university hospital, our surgeons work closely with researchers in the Center for Biomaterial Research to continuously develop and test new mesh products.
