For patients suffering with hernia pain, we know it is imperative to provide effective care so they can resume daily activities without discomfort and prevent serious complications that can develop with an untreated hernia. Yale New Haven Hospital offers fast, safe and effective treatment for all types of hernias. In most adult cases, surgery is typically the best remedy. While the specific procedure will depend on the type and size of the hernia, we offer minimally invasive approaches to most cases, including laparoscopic and robotic assisted surgery using the latest technology.
