I agree that urgent care may be a good source for a referral. But, if you know you have an inguinal hernia, you need to see a general surgeon. Personally, I would skip the internist and the emergency doctor, unless you need a referral for insurance coverage. That is, assuming you can get an appointment with a surgeon.
