For years, pain quietly took pieces of Ben’s life.

At 43, Ben was an active truck driver, lifelong builder, devoted husband and proud father of two boys, ages 14 and 10. But after surgery for severe diverticulitis at a hospital near his New York home, he developed multiple hernias that worsened over time.

What followed were years of escalating complications, repeated procedures, infections and abscesses that left him weaker each month.

That all changed in January 2026, when Ben’s case was shared with Dr. Andrew Robinson, director of the Hernia Center at Atlantic Health Overlook Medical Center.

Just days after his first meeting with Dr. Robinson, Ben underwent a complex, hours-long procedure using advanced robotic technology. With real-time feedback and precision, Dr. Robinson addressed the infections and repaired the multiple wounds inside and outside Ben’s abdomen.

When Ben woke up, he felt the difference immediately.

Today, Ben’s hernia and wounds have healed, and he’s back to work, back to his hobbies and back to spending time with his family — with no more surgeries ahead. Read his story: https://bit.ly/4xPwj7z
