Hernia surgery post prostatectomy

I developed a reoccurrence of an inguinal hernia about 1 year after my prostatectomy. It was repaired with robotic laparoscopic surgery at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, MD (which is also where I had my prostatectomy). The hernia repair was a fairly routine procedure with no complications or long term side effects.

@ssonkin, what year was your hernia repair and do you happen to recall the name of the doctor?
My prostatectomy was also done at Hopkins (Feb 2020). thanks

@ssonkin, also wondering how long your total recovery was --i.e. back to full exercise and activities?
