If you are facing ventral hernia surgery, your healthcare team will usually include the physician who diagnosed you and a surgeon. But you have a role to play on the team too. If you are interested in a minimally invasive procedure (MIP) for ventral hernia repair, ask your physician to recommend someone trained in MIP for ventral hernia repair. Remember that while your primary care physician may not be familiar with the term “MIP,” he or she should be familiar with the phrase “Minimally Invasive Procedure.”
