A : A general surgeon repairs many types of abdominal wall hernias. I do not know what you may mean about "stomach hernia." if you mean a hiatal hernia, then a general surgeon who specializes in laparoscopic surgery would be who to see.

Hiatal : Hiatal hernias, ventral hernias, incisional hernias, umbilical hernias, and ventral hernias are repaired by general surgeons. There are several different techniques from minimally invasive laparoscopic repairs to coventional "open" repairs.
