Patient Education Materials
UT Southwestern Medical Center physicians take complex medical information about hernia surgery and describe it to patients in easy-to-understand terms. In addition, we also offer patients access to educational materials that will help them to learn more about hernia surgery and why they are candidates for the treatment prescribed.
Patient education can make a significant difference in how patients approach hernia surgery. In addition to access to UT Southwestern’s health-care professionals, patients may consult other educational materials to better understand what to expect before, during and after treatment.
