I had surgery on my inguinal hernia carried out 2 weeks ago and have felt almost no pain or discomfort since. With a hectic work schedule approaching, including a trip to The Far East, I was concerned about facing several weeks off work. After meeting Martin Kurzer I was quickly reassured that my recovery would be quick and I was back on a 13 hour flight just seven days after surgery. The procedure itself was under a local anaesthetic with sedation and was able to check out of the hospital just three hours afterwards. The team at St John and Elizabeth were helpful and made the process very smooth. Following some minor discomfort on the second day, I started to walk for 20-30 minutes per day from day 3 onwards and was able to stop taking pain killers after five days. Two weeks after surgery I began some light gym work and I have not felt in any way restricted. Mr Kurzer is both helpful and reassuring and he has regularly followed up by phone and email since the procedure to check on how the recovery has been going. With so many conflicting articles online, his advice is practical and has made what initially seemed quite daunting to be very straightforward. I would highly recommend anyone needing hernia surgery to do everything they can to get an appointment with Mr Kurzer.
