It isn't fun for anyone to see a doctor about surgery. Dr. Prebil is an experienced, accomplished surgeon. I really like that he is a triathlete and passionate about his own health. I am very active in the gym and also a runner, so I appreciate his dedication to his workouts. I think it is important to have a healthy doctor who in turn wants to help his patient's life a healthy life. I will be scheduling a hernia surgery with him, and I feel very comfortable that I will be in good hands. — Perry S.
My surgery went beautifully, and when I saw Dr. Prebil for my follow up he said I had a large hernia on my right side, as well as a smaller one on the same side and then a smaller hernia on my left.

From beginning to end my experience was fantastic. I had a previous hernia surgery over twenty years ago and compared to the advanced procedure Dr Prebil offers it’s just astonishing and I’m completely amazed by my recovery. My bruising is so minimal as well as any pain I may have experienced. My prescription for pain was plenty for recovery along with the numbing shot at the incision sites that lasted for several days after only taking two regular Tylenol and ibuprofen every six hours separately with zero narcotics. — James D.
