Minimally invasive surgery

Minimally invasive surgery is an effective surgical method that is less intrusive than traditional surgery. By using small incisions and instruments, we are able to create positive surgical outcomes that typically have minimal scarring, faster recovery times and shorter hospital stays.

Understanding robotic surgery

Much like we rely on GPS to help us get to a destination, robot-assisted procedures allow surgeons to map our precise positioning for each procedure.

Our technology translates your surgeon's hand motions into smaller, more precise movements, and they use a laparoscope (camera-equipped guide) to track all movements through a video monitor. Your surgeon is in complete control of the instruments throughout the duration of your procedure.
