Indiana Hernia Center: Paul Szotek MD

"Dr. Szotek was an invaluable resource for me when considering how to best regain my health from a severe inguinal hernia. After hearing the usual "screen door screen" repair options from local surgeons who seemed content with mediocre care, I spoke with Dr. Szotek and was immediately impressed by how approachable he was and how much care he took to help me reach the best solution for my medical issue. The interaction between Dr. Szotek and me, as well as with his assistant, Val, was always fast, secure, and easy. As a result of Dr. Szotek's recommendations, I received the da Vinci surgery with a more bio-available and absorbable mesh, not only on my left side, but also my right, where there was a similar problem that previous surgeons had ignored or missed. I was extremely pleased to be made "whole" again with a single surgery! Nearly a month later, I am almost completely healed, and the Indiana Hernia Center followed up with me every step of the way. Thank you so much!"

"Dr. Paul Szotek was very responsive to answer my questions. I have never seen any doctor provide this kind of communication service to patients. Dr. Paul is very very knowledgeable on what he does. If you need Hernia Surgery, talk to him before you make a final decision. Thanks doctor for great service to your patients. Thanks. Naresh S."

"I can't say enough good things about my experience with Dr. S, Val and the surgery team that handled my hernia repair. Prior to contacting the Indiana Hernia Center, I did a lil bit of research to get my 12 year old hernia repaired. After hearing stories of not so pleasant experiences from friends and associates with other doctors, I promised my self to find the best available. After my search, Indiana Hernia center and Dr. S, was the clear choice. From the moment I inquired about my repair, to months after surgery. I knew I selected the best doctor and team in the business. Yes he and his team are good, like very good. Communication is amazing, his assistant Val amazing. Heck, everyone evolved was amazing. He is very much in demand, so you will have to be patient, they can only do so much in a day, but trust me, the wait is worth it. If anybody ask me in the future about hernia repair, Dr. S and his team will be the only people I recommend."

"I had multiple hernias and I put off getting anything done for a number of years. I contacted Dr. S and inquired about getting them all done at one time. Though it was a lengthy surgery I was able to do all of the work at one time. the recovery was simple and I had minimal discomfort. The text application was a wonderful way to communicate. I had responses almost immediately. On every question I asked. I would recommend Dr S. and Dr. Valsangkar wholeheartedly."

"Dr Szotek and his entire team were exemplary in handling my initial consult, surgery etc. he is extremely approachable and responds to texts promptly. I recommend his services without reservation. The anesthesiologist Dr Scott was equally great. Thank you to all!"
