Take A Tour of California Hernia Specialists – Our center occupies an entire brand new 11,000 sqft medical office building in Newport Beach, CA. It consists of clinical space for hernia consultations and 6,000 sqft of an accredited Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) where most of Dr. Harris’ hernia surgeries are performed.
Our hernia center is one of the newest and most advanced in the country. By combining our office space and surgery space into one center, we can assure continuity of care and the highest quality for all of our patients.
Take A Tour of California Hernia Specialists
Large hospitals and busy general surgeons are important parts of the health care delivery system in the United States. However, for patients who have a focused medical condition like a hernia, being thrown into the complexities of a hospital which is more focused on patients with cancer, heart disease, trauma, and other complicated issues isn’t the best choice. Similarly, choosing a surgeon who is performing colon cancer surgery in the morning, a thyroid surgery in the afternoon, and a hernia at the end of his or her busy day isn’t the best way to ensure you have the best outcomes.
