Robotic Surgery

This advanced technology allows for minimally invasive alternatives to conventional laparoscopic or traditional open surgeries, resulting in reduced postoperative pain, smaller incisions, less scarring, shorter hospital stay, and faster recovery times helping patients get back on their feet and back to their every day lives. 

We offer robotic-assisted surgery procedures in general surgery, urology and gynecology.

The da Vinci™ Surgical System 

The da Vinci™ Surgical System integrates robotic technology to virtually extend the surgeon's eyes and hands. The system enables surgeons to perform complex and delicate procedures through very small incisions with unmatched precision. 

The da Vinci™ system delivers 3D high-definition views, giving surgeons a crystal-clear view of the surgical area that is magnified 10 times to what the human eye sees. 

Patient benefits include:

• Minimal bleeding

• Fast, less painful recoveries

• Shorter hospital stay

• Fewer complications

• Small incisions, resulting in minimal scarring

• Faster return to daily activities
