Hernia after colorectal cancer surgery: Anyone else?

Thanks for your reply and suggestions. Mayo Clinic is about a 12 hour drive from here, unless I can get some services by phone or ZOOM type things. This is a nice summer trip, if I can drive both to and from there. In other words would I be able to drive back home to Central Michigan after Tx?

Does anyone know about Colo-rectal perineal Hernia services at the Cleveland Clinic. That's only 6 hours from here. Do they also work by phone/email/Zoom? Most hernias in volve the abdomen, so one has to be sure to state this is a hernia involving the lower back usually in the area of the Anus and levator ani muscles post-surgery removal of cancer etc.

Thanks much for replies as Information about this type hernia is very scarce.

@silversaw, Mayo Clinic welcomes both new and existing patients for virtual and in-person care, including elective surgeries, in adherence with federal and state executive orders and guidance.

Video and phone visits also can be great options for appointments before, after or in place of face-to-face care. Appointment coordinators will recommend a virtual visit if it best fits your individual needs.

Please contact Mayo Clinic Appointments to speak with an appointment coordinator to find out if a virtual appointment may be suitable in your situation. Here's the contact information http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63
