drkang Dearest Dr. Kang,

IIt is Amazing ! Thank You! I deeply appreciate your curiously because beginning celebrity in my field of expertise , i understand that success can create jealousy
I also promise to share info about you on my Pet Radio show…my followers very worry about my upcoming surgery:}
Could you please let us know what do you attribute such a Amazing record .. and what is your secret component? Also please let us know what would be the process to get
it done by you in Korea .and cost in US dollars.

I would love that everyone read it..because it is standards for quality care. Unlike many other doctors who i even afraid to go and have no trust..just see their greed…

Dr Kang you show compassion combined with excellence ! It is my believe that just a few doctors{we call them NO mesh activist s} can get truly outstanding result with no mesh..

But those doctors must do just no mesh surgery only ! for instance Dr Brown stated that his recurrence rate is less the 3 % ..he also expert for no mesh surgery only.

Also a few outstanding doctors who do both mesh and no mesh like founder of this forum Shirin Towfigh M.D and few others we talk here all the time who also can get comparable excellent result. BUT Just a few…now including that unbelievable NEW performer Superstar Dr. Repta from Arizona ..he is handsome young abdominal plastic surgeon his hand working like a laser beam ..look for his videos how he is performing that stupid mesh removal on overweight people or just simply fix any hernia…of course he doesn’t do such volume of hernia surgeries like hernia doctors but recurrence according their records close to 0

But the rest,,Forget it :}

Below is the typical record for the rest….they possibly do great mesh surgery …sorry just not for me.

Just to let you know about the recurrence rate without using a mesh for hernia repair, is 25%.

Thank you,

Hi dog,

Happy New Year!
Thank you or your interest in and question. I am very cautious about telling you about the outcome of our repairs but please understand that it is for your curiosity.

I have administered inguinal hernia repair to 1,849 patients in 2018. All of them were purely non-mesh repairs. I have not administered any mesh inguinal hernia repair at all since 2013. I have started to administer non-mesh repair since 2012, and have been fine-tuning my repair method until the end of 2017, so that my method will cause lesser relapse and complication. And it was the end of 2017 when I finally created a surgery method I deemed complete. Since January 2018, I have been repairing hernia using the final, complete surgery method. Thus, I think that the results of non-mesh repairs administered before I reached the final, complete surgery method are not so meaningful.

Although it is too short to meaningfully confirm the results of surgery, the results of surgeries I have conducted since January 2018 show: zero case of the same type inguinal hernia recurring; and 3 cases of what I call ‘pseudo-recurrence’. In all those 3 cases, direct inguinal hernia occurred after conducting indirect inguinal hernia repair, and I have administered reoperation. If these cases were to be included in the cases of recurrence, the recurrence rate will be 0.16%. As I said, the follow-up period is too short. However, it is not rare for an inguinal hernia to recur within 2 to 3 months of initial repair. Thus, I think the above results of 0% of true recurrence rate and 0.16% of pseudo recurrence rate are very encouraging.

As far as I can remember, there were less than 3 patients who re-visited my clinic because of chronic pain. So, I do not care almost at all about chronic pain. There may be patients who went to other clinic. However, because my clinic is trusted by many patients in Korea in terms of non-mesh repair, and I have guaranteed that I will re-operate on the recurred cases for free, I understand that most of the patients who suffered from a problem after the surgery come back to my clinic. Korea is relatively small in size and has a well-developed domestic transportation network – one can reach my clinic from any in Korea within 4 to 5 hours by, for example, high-speed train. Patients do not feel such a burden of re-visiting my clinic.

Of course foreigners, including Americans, can receive surgeries at my clinic. For your information, 12 Americans, 5 British people, 3 Australians and a Canadian received inguinal hernia repair at my clinic last year. Even at this moment, there are several American patients who are scheduled for the surgery. (Those numbers exclude Korean expatriates, such as Korean-Americans.)

Do you think it is possible for you visit dr Brown to organize master class surgery performance in USA ? I am planning to do my surgery with him at the end of Jen. Would be be Awesome if you could come around that time.hat would be great if you had authorized and certified by you doctor in US to perform Dr. Kang method. There are some doctors in USA who perform no mesh repair ..But the only very few i would call them No mesh activists doctors..and Dr. Brown is the one of them.
By joining forces together you will help so many people !

Hi, dog!

You can find out more about me and Kang repair by visiting my hospital’s website (http://www.gibbeum.com).
I don’t think it is appropriate for me to directly contact Dr. Brown. I would appreciate it if you could let Dr. Brown know my website, if he has questions about me.
Thank you!
