Depend: it really depend what kind of hernia you have. if you have a large incisional hernia, or a ventral hernia, then they can do the tummy tuck at the same time. if you hernia is a groin hernia or inguinal hernia ,then no, because it is different incision. of course you can arrange any surgery you want with any surgeon to be done while you are asleep.

Most Likely, Yes: Yes, you should be able to have a hernia repair and a tummy tuck in the same operative session.
