Best Hernia Surgery in Bathinda — Dr. Raman Garg

If you are searching for the best hernia surgery in Bathinda, you need an experienced, specialized hernia surgeon — not a general surgeon. Dr. Raman Garg, Senior Surgical Gastroenterologist and Advanced Laparoscopic Surgeon at Bombay Gastro & Cancer Institute, Bathinda, has performed over 500 hernia operations and is the leading hernia surgeon in South Punjab and the Malwa region.

Patients from Bathinda, Mansa, Barnala, Sangrur, Muktsar, Faridkot, Ferozepur, Sirsa, Dabwali, Hanumangarh, and Sri Ganganagar travel to Dr. Raman Garg for hernia surgery because of his proven expertise, state-of-the-art laparoscopic equipment, and excellent outcomes.

Key fact: Hernia cannot heal on its own. A truss belt only hides the hernia — it does not cure it. Surgery is the only permanent cure. The longer you wait, the higher the risk of strangulation — a life-threatening emergency requiring urgent surgery.

Types of Hernia Treated in Bathinda

Inguinal Hernia (Groin Hernia)

Most common hernia — groin area. More common in men. Tissue or intestine pushes through the inguinal canal. Repaired laparoscopically with TEP or TAPP technique. Both sides (bilateral) can be repaired in one operation.

Umbilical Hernia (Navel Hernia)

Hernia at the belly button. Common in obese adults and after pregnancy. Laparoscopic or open repair with mesh based on size. Most patients discharged same day.

Incisional Hernia

Hernia through a previous surgery scar. Can be large. Dr. Raman Garg specialises in complex incisional hernia repair including component separation for giant hernias.

Femoral Hernia

Below the groin crease. More common in women. Higher risk of strangulation than inguinal hernia — prompt surgery recommended as soon as diagnosed.

Hiatal Hernia

Stomach pushes through the diaphragm. Causes severe GERD and chest pain. Treated with laparoscopic anti-reflux (fundoplication) surgery.

Bilateral Hernia

Both sides of the groin affected. Laparoscopic repair allows both sides to be corrected in a single anaesthesia — major advantage over open surgery.

Recurrent Hernia

Hernia that has come back after a previous repair. Dr. Raman Garg specialises in managing recurrent hernias using advanced laparoscopic techniques.

Epigastric & Spigelian Hernia

Small fatty hernias above the navel or at the lateral edge of the rectus muscle. Usually simple repair with mesh.
