Living in Pain After Mesh Repair Failure
For almost two years, Dan lived in constant pain after a previous hernia repair that used surgical mesh. The discomfort was so severe it limited his activity and quality of life.
“I was basically told I was just going to have to live with it—manage the pain with medications and less activity,” he shared.
Even after spending $20,000 out of pocket on a nerve surgery that offered no relief, the pain persisted. Each day felt like another reminder that something wasn’t right—and that few doctors seemed to understand what he was going through.
A Trusted Referral Leads to New Hope
It was an orthopedic surgeon who finally pointed him in the right direction—recommending
hernia specialist Dr. Yunis at the Center for Hernia Repair.
From the very first appointment, things felt different.
“Within two minutes, Dr. Yunis diagnosed my issue,” he said. “Two weeks later, I had a three-hour surgery — one of his longer surgeries due to the complexity from prior procedures — to remove the mesh.”
Dr. Yunis’ experience and precision gave him confidence from the start. At every step, the Center for Hernia Repair team took the time to listen, explain every detail, and ensure he fully understood his options—something he hadn’t experienced with other doctors.

What sets the Center for Hernia Repair apart is more than surgical expertise—it’s the
highly personal, accessible care the team provides at every step of the journey.

“They were fantastic from the beginning. Dr. Yunis never rushed me, answered all my questions, and genuinely cared about what I’d been going through,” Dan shared.
This level of personalized, attentive care ensures patients feel seen, heard, and supported—making a complex surgical journey far less intimidating.
A Successful Surgery and a Pain-Free Recovery
After years of frustration, Dan finally felt seen—and finally found relief.
“He was there when I woke up from surgery, and the follow-up went great,” he said. “Recovery has gone well, and I’m so happy I found such an excellent, top-notch doctor who still cares.”
The difference was life-changing. Where other doctors had given up or dismissed his pain, Dr. Yunis provided real answers—and results.
“Dr. Yunis & Staff are 100% there for you and care... They are there to help you!”
