The cost of umbilical hernia repair in Germany typically ranges from $3,200 to $5,200. Prices vary depending on the hospital, the surgeon’s experience, the complexity of the hernia, and whether mesh is used. In the United States, the average cost is $6,300 (per ASPS). This means umbilical hernia repair in Germany is about 33% less than in the U.S.
German hospitals usually include pre-op exams, anesthesia, the surgical procedure (open or laparoscopic), mesh materials if needed, one hospital night, and follow-up care. In the U.S., the listed price often covers only the surgeon’s fee, with anesthesia, hospital stay, and mesh billed separately. Always confirm what’s included at each clinic.
