Hernia Seminar Set for April 18

About 5 million people in the U.S. are living with a hernia, but most will never seek treatment. If you have swelling, pain or a bulge in your abdomen or groin, or pain when bending over, coughing or lifting, you may have a hernia.

To learn more, register for a free seminar on Tuesday, April 18, at 5:30 p.m. at Memorial Health Meadows Hospital, One Meadows Parkway in Vidalia. Dr. Kendrix Evans, Dr. Henry Ferland and Dr. Kurt Hofmann, surgeons with Memorial Health Meadows Physicians, will discuss advances in minimally invasive hernia repair that can lead to a faster recovery with less pain.
