Our umbilical or ventral repairs require a three-layered closure that closes the naval or ventral defect and repairs the tissue three inches above and below the defect to lower the recurrence. These three rows of sutures reinforce the area above and below the defect or hole lower the recurrence dramatically. The recurrence rate for this technique is less than 5%. Again, no mesh is involved in the repair. Umbilical hernia repairs are $4,250.00 and ventral hernia repairs are $4,750 which are all-inclusive rates if done in our center.
