Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.      
How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

This is my 3rd hernia repair, first 2 not...

This is my 3rd hernia repair, first 2 not successful, the 2nd left me with nerve impingement which is very painful. I consulted with a PS for my 3rd and hopefully final surgery, he did a CT scan saw that I had destasis recti and said since he will be repairing the hernia he will repair my abs as well, which was a big bonus. My anxiety is the fear of the unknown the post op pain and drains. Any information will be helpful. Thank you
