You Deserve Excellent Care

But don’t just take it from us! See what previous patients have to say:

Brilliant. Couldn’t fault anything. Quick appointments for both consultations and operation. Was listened to by all those involved and any concerns were discussed and I was reassured. Felt like I was a real person.

Our patient, a 64 year old female, came to us with worries about not being listened to based on her previous experiences with healthcare.

We are happy to have eased her concerns and provided surgery that helped her return to her life.

The operation was absolutely amazing and worked so well. I felt so well afterwards, and I’m so glad to have had it done by Mr Kirkby-Bott. And the anaesthetist and team was very, very good.

An inguinal hernia patient, an 84-year-old female, had been living with a hernia for a decade before it became very painful.

Within only a couple of weeks of her contact, we were able to relieve her pain.

Our Approach to Hernia Repair for Women

The options for groin hernia surgery are the same for both women and men. We can offer either keyhole/laparoscopic surgery performed under general anaesthetic, or open surgery performed under local anaesthetic with sedation.

A major benefit to surgery under local anaesthetic is that we can test your repair during surgery and you will go home the same day. Additionally, there is less risk of complications with urinating and the chances of long term discomfort are reduced.
