Open hernia repair surgery is a well-established procedure for treating various types of hernias, particularly complex or recurrent cases. Dr. Adarsh M Patil, a highly experienced Consultant Laparoscopic Surgeon, specializes in open hernia repair using advanced techniques to ensure durable and long-lasting results.
