The Hernia Clinic was established by Mr Nathan Coombs FRCS, consultant surgeon at the Great Western Hospital, Swindon, UK. He specialises in hernia repair surgery, general surgery (www.surgical-specialists.co.uk), and breast cancer surgery.

“Patients with hernias deserve the best treatments available. It is no longer acceptable to use operation techniques that have changed little for decades, when newer materials, modern methods and a patient-centred approach will improve outcomes and allow patients to return to their normal activities much more quickly.”

The Hernia Clinic specialises in hernia repair operations performed under local anaesthetic and laparoscopic (key-hole surgery) hernia operations.

Although certain hernia types may be more suited to different methods of repair, a detailed out-patient consultation before surgery allows time for patients and the specialist to make the appropriate choice of operation.
