What kind of hernia do you have the Shoudice hospital just outside Toronto ..just call them and they will answer your questions ..they do not remove mesh ..but they do you it ..they do the tissue repair
There is no Hernia specialist in Ottawa
Hernia repair is done in the hospitals by a general surgeon we’re they use plastic mesh …l don’t knew if any other parts of Canada ..that repairs hernias without mesh .The Canadian hernia society states that plastic mesh is the gold standard of care
Hope this helps you …if you live in Canada hernia repair at Shoudice our insurance pays for it
