About the clinic

Inguinal hernia care at German Medical Institute (GMI) in Limassol, Cyprus, includes imaging and surgical repair. Laparoscopic repair is the standard approach, using 3D and 4K cameras; most cases may be treated as day surgery.

The general surgery team is led by Dr. Marios Karaiskakis, director of General Surgery and the Surgical Unit. GMI holds ISO 9001, ISO 45001, ISO 22000, and CHKS accreditations.

Diagnostic options at GMI

A general surgery consultation can help assess the hernia and guide the choice of imaging. Available diagnostic options include:

Ultrasound imaging
CT scan
MRI
Digital radiography or fluoroscopy

Inguinal hernia repair options

Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair: Surgeons work through small incisions using specialized tools and high-definition cameras. GMI has 3D and 4K laparoscopy towers, plus electrosurgical and energy-based devices. Day-case surgery is possible, with no overnight stay for most cases. The minimally invasive method is associated with less blood loss, less post-operative pain, a shorter hospital stay, and faster recovery.
Open inguinal hernia repair: Traditional open surgery remains an option for emergency or complex cases.
Robotic inguinal hernia repair: Robotic surgery is planned for the clinic and is not yet available.

GMI’s hybrid operating theatre provides real-time imaging during surgery. ICG fluorescence imaging is also available to support precision during procedures. Patients can request a consultation through Bookimed to discuss assessment and treatment options.

Just finished today at the Oncology centre and i had surgery last week and am now recovering. The experience was absolutely amazing,i am only full of superlatives and look forward to life getting back to normal I was greeted on day 1 by Antigoni in admissions and shown around i was given my room on the 4th floor and everyone was helpful ,i met a dimitra and Marios i remember who always brought me cool fresh water bottles as i needed to stay hydrated after surgery. On the momemt of surgery which was with the Uroligist Doctor Petros T ,i was also greeted by a lovely, friendly, helpful lady called Katerina,who helped keep me calm before Anesthesia.The sugery was a sucess and my stay in the hospital plus follow ups have been perfect.i highly recommended this place.From the quick turnarounds of surgery as i needed it urgently and to my leave.

I want to sincerely thank Dr. Andreas Filis. He performed an excellent surgery on my father and helped him get rid of tumor. From the very first meeting, Dr. Filis was very kind, explained everything clearly, and acted professionally. We felt like we were in safe hands. The surgery was very successful thanks to his skill. We are endlessly grateful to him for everything he has done for our family. Dr. Filis is not only a great doctor but also a sincere and caring person. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for an experienced and trustworthy neurosurgeon.

A new building in a great location. The clinic is very clean, and the staff is friendly. I had a cosmetic surgeon with Dr. Iakovos Georgiou, and everything went perfectly. The doctor and his team were extremely professional, and I’m beyond happy with the results. If anyone says there’s no quality surgery in Cyprus, they just haven’t been here.

All the nursing staff and doctors are excellent. I was in the I C U unit. Plus the food was delicious. I had been operated in a nice clean and professional clinic. Well done to all.

Unprofessional service provided by the director of the infectious diseases department of the institute. Incorrect diagnosis and improper treatment, if it can even be called treatment. As for their dermatologists, it’s better to remain silent—utterly lacking in professionalism. Steer clear of this so-called “medical” institution.
