Although these days an inguinal hernia repair is considered a very routine procedure, it is nonetheless always a cause for concern given the potential risks involved in any surgery and also specifically the concerns surrounding potential chronic pain from plastic mesh and other associated risks – albeit extremely small - such as the potential loss of a testicle (I believe worldwide a less than 1% chance but of course someone somewhere has to be in that small cohort!). In my case that concern was heightened given I was born with only one testicle (never a problem till now but suddenly a big worry). So the choice of surgeon – important at the best of times – in my case was even more important; I wanted to be sure I was in expert hands. And there is no doubt that with Mr. Warren, I could not have been in better hands. Mr. Warren was clear in my initial consult and answered all my questions; I felt confident I had found the right chap. But the proof, as they say, is in the pudding and indeed being now 4 weeks post-op (laparoscopic TEP repair), I can say I would not know I had had surgery. I am completely pain free – and in the main was pain free after about a week with only minor residual pain in the couple of weeks thereafter. So a great result from a great surgeon. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Mr. Warren.
