Robotic Surgery
Precision, Comfort, and Faster Recovery
More than ever, surgeons are using robotic-assisted systems to perform minimally invasive procedures. These technologies allow for extreme precision and control through just a few small incisions—resulting in less pain, reduced blood loss, fewer complications, lower risk of infection, minimal scarring, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery for patients.
One example of this advanced technology is the da Vinci® Surgical System, which combines robotic, computer, and optical innovations to enhance the surgeon’s capabilities. Controlled entirely by your surgeon, the system offers a magnified 3D-HD view and wristed instruments that mimic—and even exceed—the range of motion of the human hand, allowing for delicate, precise movements in hard-to-reach areas.
Talk to your doctor to see if robotic-assisted surgery is right for you.
Areas of Expertise
Acute care and general surgeons often use robotic surgery to manage conditions such as inguinal, ventral, and hiatal hernias; GERD, diverticulitis; gallbladder disease; and bowel obstruction. They also use the robot to perform procedures such as colon and small intestine resection, colectomy (complete or partial colon removal), cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal), and colostomy reversal.
