Umbilical Hernia question
I think there is nothing wrong with getting a second opinion, particularly if you feel you might be getting more symptomatic from the hernia. I’m just a patient though, I don’t know what doctors think of additional opinions and if they’re helpful or not.
If your username is suggestive of your location (NYC) then you have a lot of great hernia specialists nearby, one that is frequently mentioned on these forums in Dr Brian Jacob in NYC. Further upstate in Albany NY is Dr Steven Goldstein.
