A hernia can do more than cause discomfort—it can interrupt your daily life, make routine tasks harder and leave you wondering when you’ll feel like yourself again. Whether you're dealing with persistent pain or simply want to avoid future complications, it's important to know that you have options.
At Trinity Health Michigan, we understand how disruptive a hernia can be and we’re here to help you move forward with confidence. Our surgeons use robotic-assisted techniques to repair hernias with precision and care—offering a minimally invasive solution that’s designed to reduce pain, shorten recovery time and help you get back to feeling like yourself.
More Precision. Less Incision.
Traditional Surgery Incision
Robotic Surgery Incision
Using the da Vinci surgical robot, our surgeons perform hernia repairs through a few tiny incisions—each typically less than an inch long. The robot’s high-definition 3D camera and finely controlled instruments allow for precise movements and a clear view of the hernia, all while minimizing impact to surrounding tissue.
Compared to traditional open surgery, this technique often means less pain, smaller scars, and a quicker return to your normal activities. And throughout the procedure, your surgeon remains in full control—guiding every step with care and precision.

For hernia repair, accuracy and a gentle approach make all the difference. That’s why our surgeons use the da Vinci surgical robot—a state-of-the-art system designed to perform surgery through just a few tiny incisions. Its robotic arms move like a human hand, but with even greater precision and flexibility.
A high-definition 3D camera gives your surgeon a magnified, crystal-clear view of the hernia and surrounding tissue. Every movement is carefully guided from a specialized console, keeping your surgeon in full control while minimizing impact to your body. The result? A smoother procedure, less pain and a faster recovery.
