Abdominal Hernia Repair

WELCOME MESSAGE
Dear Colleagues,

This will be our 5th run for the very popular Abdominal Hernia Repair Workshop in University Medical Center. In the past years, these workshops have been fully subscribed and we are extremely encouraged by the fact through the workshop, it has heightened awareness on the treatment of hernia and have added insights into the surgeons knowledge on this topic.

This year, we are privileged to have Dr. Stephen James Nixon from the Edinburgh Royal Infirmary of Scotland joining our local team of experts to bring forward to you a 2-days intensive course with lectures and live surgery. I am confident that the program will be attractive enough to draw you back to UMC if you have attended one before and for those attending for the first time, it will not be a disappointment for you.

I look forward to welcoming you to UMC.

Sincerely yours,

NGUYEN HOANG BAC, MD, PhD
