I do not know of anyone in Montana, ID, WY, ND practicing non-mesh repair, but you may have some success in contacting local surgeon offices and asking directly.

The following is a list of surgeon names on the western USA that have appeared on these forums and on other websites associating with non-mesh hernia repair but it could be on a case-by-case basis, you would likely want to contact them directly and inquire if they perform the non-mesh repair for your type of hernia, and if you are a suitable patient for the procedure.

– Dr Peter Billing in Seattle, WA

– Dr Allison Perrin in Seattle, WA

– Dr Rebecca Petersen in Seattle, WA

– Dr Andrew Wright in Seattle, WA

Shouldice Clinic in Toronto Canada is perhaps the most famous globally for non-mesh repair of hernia, and if you are traveling anyway it may be worth a consideration.

A handful of others found elsewhere in the eastern USA are:
