It wasn't until the day of my double inguinales hernia operation that I met Doctor S. McCain. (This was down to the providing Hospital) The Doctor had a thorough investigation both of my previous notes and on my body. He noticed that I also had 3rd Hernia at my umbilical. Which he would tend to at the same keyhole operation. The operation went well without unexpected issues. He was also very good at the post operational consultation.
Very straightforward and communicative, excellent treatment
