このコンテンツについて
I had a great experience with my inguinal hernia surgery this summer, so I just had to invite my doctor, Nora Fullington and her partner, Dr. Michael Reinhorn from Boston Hernia onto the podcast! A few takeaways:
- The vast majority of hernia repairs are performed by general surgeons in hospital operating rooms. But better outcomes, lower cost, and greater convenience are possible if you can find a specialized practice like I did and go to an ambulatory surgery center. (Only 3% of inguinal hernias in Massachusetts are repaired in ASCs, which is nuts.)
- Despite the superiority of the Boston Hernia model, insurance companies and big health systems make it hard for patients to go this route.
- You shouldn't be scared of mesh as long as your surgeon knows what they're doing
- Patients are often mis-diagnosed with hernias as a result of medical imaging. A physical exam is the way to go
- Drs. Reinhorn and Fullington believe their model can be applied more broadly within surgery and beyond
Enjoy the show.
