Shouldice Hospital

I had my first down in 2008 and went back for the second side. The technique works well, and you will get back to work faster. Day 1- Armenian and orientation and meeting your doctor. Medical team will get all medical info and share the plan with you. They offer lunch and dinner and snacks at night Mid night, no food and no drinks Day 2: operation day, you will be shaved and will take shower and wait in your room until it’s your turn Post surgery, you will be tested and looked at to see if you are ready to drink and move Advise drink as much as you can water WARNING: you might feel well and wanna run. DO NOT, listen to the nurses. Take it slowly as meds is still there. I saw few people including myself pushing it hard and we were stupid Day 2: start the excise time, again take it easy and lots of walking. Day 3-4 … just repeat until you are 100% for Good luck fellows

Strongly consider coming to Shouldice for hernia repairs. Was out cold for the surgery and the stay was very nice. Bring a warm blanket as you may be sharing a room with somebody else and can not get the perfect room temperature. The food they serve you makes me want to stay beyond my expected stay. They are so good, with full service breakfast, lunch, dinner, and self service night time snack. Feels almost like dining at a high end diner. Lots of plants around the hospital, making your walks much more pleasant and providing clean air for you to breathe. All the staff are very nice from start to end, even in-between. Will absolutely return to Shouldice if needed.

Today, I returned home after a 3 day stay having hernia surgery at Shouldice Hospital in the GTA—the only hospital in the world specializing solely in hernia surgery. The rumour has that people from all over, including celebrities like Bruce Willis and Elton John, come here for treatment. If you need hernia surgery, I highly recommend Shouldice. It may sound like a stretch, but the experience was akin to staying at a resort without the beach. The ambiance, food, staff, and overall atmosphere were truly exceptional.

I recently had my hernia repair here and the surgery was so smooth. The doctors are very nice. The food was very impressive and the facility in general is very cozy. I had a mesh repair when I was younger at some random hospital and to this day I am still in pain. Here at shouldice I got the no mesh surgery and couldn’t have made a better choice. They get you up and walking after 4 hours of the surgery. By the next morning you are walking at about 80%. If you’re reading this, this is the only place you should be going for a hernia repair. Do not trust local general surgeons at normal hospitals. This is a hospital dedicated for hernias, and they are number 1 in the world. Also big thanks to all the nurses who assisted me. They are very polite and they really care for your well being. Thank you all, I am very satisfied. 5/5 stars for me.

I went for my hernia assessment , the Hospital is unbelievably well organized and efficient. My appointment was at 1:00 and I left for home 30 minutes later. Was seen by 2 surgeons both patient and friendly. I now know why it is recognized as the best and why people travel from afar to go to the Shouldice Hospital. 👍

Shouldice is a treasure, and a model of what health care can be. While the criteria for admission (type of hernia and height/weight requirements) are...

They only repair your hernia if it visible, no matter how much you are suffering in pain in groin hernia. And also they want you to stay in there...

I had an umbilical hernia repaired in 2013, and my experience was amazing. I would always joke with my and say that it felt like a spa. Here I am in 2023,...
