The hospital has five star accommodation in addition to a day surgery unit. This allows total flexibility in meeting the requirements of doctors and patients. The Sydney Hernia Clinic is based at Holroyd Private Hospital. No other hospital in Sydney has a special interest in the treatment of hernia.

NOTICE - Regarding Google Search Result

Thank you for visiting this long standing website – The  Sydney Hernia Clinic.  You may well have come to this site via a Google search.  The Google search engine is false and misleading because of a sponsored link to an organisation called The Melbourne Hernia Clinic which includes on its website an organisation that has been named the Sydney Hernia Centre.

The Sydney Hernia Clinic wishes to disassociate itself from the site known as the Sydney Hernia Centre which is a paid sponsored link set up by Google.  The fact that the link has been paid to receive preferential listing is confusing to internet users.
Please note that this is the site of The Sydney Hernia Clinic.

   

The main focus of The Sydney Hernia Clinic is on the treatment of groin hernia. Other hernias requiring repair with marlex mesh such as umbilical (belly button) hernias and incisional hernias (which occur after breakdown of operative incisions) are also of interest to the Clinic. Complex hernias such as hiatus hernia and stomal hernia are treated at Holroyd Private Hospital but do not fall within the domain of The Sydney Hernia Clinic.

Quality Control
All surgeons at The Sydney Hernia Clinic have agreed to adhere to strict protocols. There is a very comprehensive audit of all hernia operations performed at the Clinic.

Because of the efficiency of operations used for modern hernia repair the surgeons at the Clinic are conscious of the importance of the patient's ability to return to work and sporting activities. Patients are encouraged to make full use of this benefit. The economic importance of this is recognised for the self-employed, professional sports people and those patients who have developed work related hernias. The study incorporates this aspect of quality measurement.

Training
Teaching has become an important activity for The Sydney Hernia Clinic. International conferences are held regularly to train surgeons in the techniques for hernia repair. International visiting surgeons perform operations at Holroyd Private Hospital as part of the training programme. The Clinic has access to audio-visual equipment which allows live transmission of surgical procedures and direct audio interaction by participants with the operating surgeon. Surgeons from all over Australia visit the Clinic to observe procedures performed by surgeons of The Sydney Hernia Clinic at Holroyd Private Hospital.
