Winter Park Hernia Center

Dr. Koller gave me my life back and saved it at the same time. I had been turned away by a large regional medical center in Orlando, despite having a CT scan from them showing an incarcerated hernia, and 3 emergency rooms visits over 6 weeks, because the surgeon -not the ER - the surgeon there told me I needed to lose 30 lbs before he would operate. The problem was the hernia was incarcerated and a portion of my intestines was trapped inside it, risking greater damage and increasing my mortality risks. The ER at this large regional center would push the hernia in, wipe my nose, and send me home. I was told if I needed to come back to use an ice bag to help make the hernia go back in. Nuts! After 3 trips to the ER there I started looking for another surgeon and was fortunate to find Dr.

Dr. Koller And his staff are amazing. I suffered with my hernia for three years and he took care of it very Quickly and efficiently and I feel 100 times better than I did when I had it. If you were having issues with a hernia, he’s the doctor you want operating on you.

My wife was operated on initially about 3 years ago in Melbourne FL for what the surgeon thought initially was a “tumor” but turned into an inguinal hernia once he began the procedure. Go figure. She was in pain after and for three years since. Two more surgeons attempted to alleviate her pain by also operating to no avail. She has endured 9/10 out of 10 pain daily. We began consulting with a hernia repair specialist at USF but the process began to drag out & a family member in Orlando recommended Dr. Koller. At our initial consult he stated boldly “ I will fix you”. By this time we had begun to give up hope. Dr. Koller operated on my wife, found the problem immediately ( a nerve that had been stapled ), and indeed “fixed” my wife. It has been a month and the excruciating pain in her abdom

After a year and a half of undiagnosed pain and persistent symptoms, despite multiple medical visits elsewhere, my own research led me to Dr. Charles Koller at WPHC. He and his team immediately identified the problem — bilateral inguinal hernias — scheduled surgery, and performed the repair. From my first consultation to surgical completion was just thirteen days. After eighteen months of significant disruption to my daily life, Dr. Koller identified the problem and fixed it in under two weeks. The efficiency, clarity, and competence of his care were exceptional. Equally impressive was the professionalism of his entire team — from the reception staff and the scheduling and insurance coordinators to his surgical team and operating room personnel. Every step of the process was organized, c

From the first appointment all the way through to my husband’s last appointment, Dr. Koller and all of his staff have been nothing but professional and kind. Explained every step of the process and ensured we understood what the process would entail. Thank You is not enough but Thank You ALL, job well done. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND !!
