weight loss surgery

Losing weight is difficult for everyone

However, we know that above a certain BMI it is very near impossible to achieve sustained long-term weight loss. It is in these instances that drastic steps are sometimes necessary to regain control of your weight enabling you to live a healthier, longer and better quality life.

Considering bariatric surgery is a significant decision and one we take very seriously. We would consider it a privilege to walk this journey with you.

hernia surgery

Don’t suffer any more from Hernia pain

A hernia occurs when there is a weakness in the muscles of the abdominal wall that allow abdominal contents (such as intestines or fatty tissue) to protrude through the muscles. This can result in a visible bulge under the skin and may also cause pain. Occasionally the weakness may have resulted from a specific traumatic event.

I can fix this issue with hernia surgery in Tauranga and get you back to living a normal life. Click on the learn more button below to find out more information.
