Dr. Nora Fullington, MD

I am 79 with inguinal hernia. Watched over 50 repair videos of all techniques and searched for many doctors for a quick repair with no avail, till I Got to Boston Hernia. After the initial visit with Dr. Fullington I Knew that I was in the right place. Checked in 6:00 am, discharged 8:30am. Did not have any discomfort or pain. Took 4 tylenols next 48 hours just incase. Was up and walking all the time except sleeping. I believe that I was 100% after 4 weeks. I am eternally grateful for Dr. Fullington and her team for an exceptional surgery. This chapter is now closed.

I highly recommend Dr Fullington! As someone who has never had surgery before this, I was a bit nervous about the entire process. She was extremely reassuring and comforting throughout. The surgery itself was easy and the recovery went quickly, with only slight, minor, discomfort for the first day. After that I was basically fine. Healing went well and at follow up appointment I told her, jokingly, that while I hope I never see her again, I will glady recommend her to anyone in need of hernia repair!

I can not say enough about Dr. Fullington and her whole team! From my first appointment, I have always been met with kindness and professionalism. Her surgical skills were proven with my smooth surgery from which I had very little dicomfort. After being home for only 2 days, I was ready to resume by daily routines. Thank you, Dr. Fullinton!!!!

Dr. Fullington and her exceptional medical team are outstanding! I’m incredibly grateful for the meticulous care and attention I received during my recent hernia procedure. From the very first appointment, Dr. Fullington made me feel completely at ease. She has such a calm, confident presence and took the time to explain the procedure in detail, answering my questions with patience and kindness. I immediately knew I chose the best surgeon. On the day of the surgery, every member of her team was professional and compassionate. They made my experience feel smooth and stress-free. Dr. Fullington’s skill as a surgeon is truly remarkable—the procedure went perfectly, and to my surprise, I experienced minimal discomfort afterward. Thanks to Dr. Fullington’s expertise and the excellent post-operative care provided by her team, my recovery was fairly quick. I was up and moving around much sooner than I expected and back to my normal activities. I am beyond grateful to Dr. Fullington and… her team and highly recommend Boston Hernia to anyone in need of a skilled surgeon. With appreciation, Saba Alhadi

Both Dr. Fullington and Dr. Reinhorn were amazing. Great care and professionalism before, during and after my surgery. Entire team did everything needed to make sure I had great care to ensure I'd have the best possible results. Cannot recommend both Dr's and their team enough! Thank you.

Boston Hernia is the most friendly, courteous, kind, and universally competent group of physicians, nurses, and staff from whom I've ever had the pleasure and privilege of receiving medical care! My surgery went well, my recovery is proceeding exactly as projected, and I'm doing great!

Clear and thorough explanations. Dr. Fullington and her staff are highly professional, caring and competent!

I am a retired professional athlete. I am very careful to only select top surgeons when it comes to injury repair. After extensive research I chose Dr Nora Fullington to repair my inguinal hernia. Her work was absolutely outstanding! I chose the rapid recovery mesh repair. I virtually had no pain during my recovery, using only ibuprofen and acetaminophen! I was walking immediately from day one. And doing light housework within a week. Now a month out, I am back in the gym and feeling great. I can't recommend Dr Fullington enough!

Dr. Fullington was great! Very professional, explained all my options for my Fast Recovery inguinal hernia repair. The procedure was quick, and I was back out walking 24h later with no pain and back to full exercise in 2 weeks. The procedure was performed at Newton-Wellesley Hospital. I have had three inguinal hernia surgery repairs in the past by general surgeons. This time I decided to find a surgeon who specializes in hernia repair with extensive experience. After doing extensive research and weighing the pros and cons, I decided to have the Fast Recovery Inguinal Hernia Repair with Dr Fullington. Very Happy with the outcome.

Dr Fullington repaired my inguinal hernia several months ago and it could not have gone better. She and her PA, Lauren, were very professional and thorough at every stage -- in their initial explanations of the procedure, their care and skill during the procedure, and the followup. I only used ibuprofen and acetaminophen for 3 days after the operation and was walking several miles daily within a few days. I highly recommend this team at Boston Hernia and Newton Wellesley Hospital.
