How Can Umbilical Hernia Be Best Treated?

I have an umbilical hernia that is bothering me. I HAVE BEEN BOOKED TO SEE DR. STEWARD IN PORT PERRY AND WAS NOT INITIALLY IMPRESSED. THIS WILL BE MY SECOND ATTEMPT AT HAVING THIS FIXED . I AM AN ACTIVE PERSON AND FEEL THIS IS LIMITING MY ACTIVITIES. I CONTACTED THE SHOULDICE CLINIC AND THEY HAVE SET A DATE FOR ME FOR THE END OF JANUARY 2105 WHAT DO I DO? SHOULD I TAKE A RISK AND GO TO STEWART OR WAIT A LONG TIME FOR SHOULDICE?
