Dr Layani and Dr Silverman are leaders in the field of laparoscopic hernia repair. Together they operate the Hernia Repair Centre in both John Flynn Private Hospital and Tweed Public Hospital. Specialising in a range of hernia operations, the Hernia Repair Centre can treat inguinal hernias, hiatus hernias, femoral hernias, epigastric hernias and more. Visit our website for more information on hernia symptoms, treatments, hernia recovery and much more. If you are suffering from a painful or unsightly hernia, contact us today for a consultation. The only effective treatment for hernias is surgery. Our laparoscopic hernia repair surgery accesses the hernia site by keyhole surgery with a camera and tools inserted through small incisions. This makes for a less invasive surgery, less pain, lower risk of infection and often leads to a faster recovery time.
