What they personally lead.
Training and recognition
One of the founding figures of standardized hernia surgery in China; established Huadong Hospital's Hernia and Abdominal Wall Surgery Center, which performs one of the largest annual volumes of hernia repairs in the country; served as Chairman and now Honorary Chairman of the Hernia and Abdominal Wall Surgery Group of the Chinese Society of Surgery; principal author of Chinese clinical guidelines for adult inguinal, femoral, and incisional hernia repair, including the 2018 and updated consensus statements on laparoscopic TEP and TAPP techniques; trained generations of Chinese hernia surgeons through national continuing medical education programs <!-- TODO: needs second source -->
What to expect
Hernia repair in China is significantly less expensive than equivalent procedures in the US or Europe, and outcomes at experienced centers like Huadong Hospital match international benchmarks. Dr. Tang is particularly suited for patients with recurrent hernias, large incisional hernias requiring component separation, or complications from prior mesh repairs. International patients should bring prior operative reports, imaging (CT of the abdominal wall), and details of any mesh products previously implanted.
