Respected Sir/madam, My father is now 80 years of age, he had hernia for which he was operated in muzprpr. Br.in 2014 but now he get this problem once again, for which we visit the same doc. And he admitted their mistakes and told us that he will operate again free of cost but my mind and heart are not in favour to take another chance from him at such a age, besides that he has ulcer too, So my query is this to know that is it possible to get operated at the age of 80 on already once operated part, and what will be the cost?
