45 minutes to an hour in most cases, I was told with a larger hernia it could take longer, etc.

Mine was under an hour but of course I told him to hurry. Didn't want to miss Judge Judy.

My surgeon told me that they schedule the OR for 3 hrs, but that it's generally only 1-2, depending on internal anatomy & any repairs, along w/other various personal case variances.
