Hernias affect many Americans. Although the exact cause of hernias is unknown, researchers have found that weak spots in the abdominal and groin muscles are contributing factors. Hernias can cause severe discomfort, and place physical limitations on those who develop them. Hernia surgery is the only way to effectively treat this condition and restore a patient’s comfort, activity level, and quality of life.

At Laparoscopic Surgical Center of New York, Dr. Brian Katz treats hernias using minimally invasive surgical techniques. Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair can be performed on our New York, NY patients, providing them with a safe and effective treatment that requires little recovery time. For those who are looking to treat hernias quickly and effectively, laparoscopic surgery may be the most appropriate treatment option.
