Is your hernia causing you discomfort, pain, or other symptoms? At Hernia Clinic Hampshire, we aim to free you from discomfort, improve your quality of life and get you back to doing the things that matter to you.
If you are considering hernia surgery, we’d like to help you understand the benefits of private hernia surgery:
We’d like to help you understand the benefits of private hernia surgery:
Working with a hernia can become a challenge. If lifting is a part of your job and the hernia is not repaired, it can soon prevent you from working. Going private reduces the length of time that you are unable to work, critical for those that are self-employed.
Simple tasks become, literally, a pain. Previously simple tasks such as gardening, shopping or for some, playing with children and grandchildren become impossible. Going private with the Hernia Clinic Hampshire gets your recovery started sooner.
The leisure activities that keep us young at heart become too painful when waiting for a hernia. While gentle exercising when you are waiting for surgery can help improve your recovery, lifting weights and strenuous activity is no longer sensible. Even golf can be problematic. Private surgery to repair your hernia allows you to get back into those activities you love.
Choosing to repair your hernia can help improve hernia symptoms and stop the hernia from getting worse.
Worsening symptoms can include aching/discomfort, increased pain, the inability to do certain activities, and the possibility of the hernia becoming difficult or impossible to reduce.
Repairing your hernia means stopping it from negatively affecting your life, alleviating discomfort and minimising the risk of it reoccurring.
Our patients reported a 40% increase in their health score within 8 weeks of surgery*.
We are proud to say that every patient who completed a survey last year said that the surgery helped their symptoms and they were happy they had their hernia repaired. We are happy to have been able to help them.

94% have little to no problems doing their usual activities at 8 weeks post surgery.
96% have little to no problems at 8 weeks post surgery.
At 8 weeks post-surgery, nearly all of our patients surveyed have reported improvements, with little to no pain/discomfort or problems with mobility or doing their usual activities, compared to before their repair.*
8 weeks is still very early in the wound remodelling phase, so symptoms continue to improve after this time.
It is also worth noting that some of our patients have significant medical problems that will impact their activity levels post hernia surgery, which is why we do not see 100% improvement.
At Hernia Clinic Hampshire, we continuously strive to better understand our patients’ needs and work with them to achieve high quality care and excellent results.
We will reactivate your life and get you back to your work or sports, back in the garden or watching the grandkids – we’ll get you back to the things that matter.

The current NHS waiting lists are long, with some patients waiting over a year.
We believe life is too short to spend it in discomfort, unable to do the activities you wish to do, or unable to work because of a hernia.
We aim to get you in for a consultation within 1 week and surgery within 2-3 weeks. Choose the time that fits your schedule.
