The Da Vinci® Surgical System is a state-of-the-art surgical robot that offers surgeons a new alternative to the traditional open and laparoscopic approaches to abdominal surgery. Robotic surgery allows surgeons to perform delicate and complex procedures through several, very small, incisions around the abdomen.
The precision that the Da Vinci® Robot gives the surgeon is unparalleled. With the use of the Da Vinci® Surgical System our physicians can offer you a surgical approach that produces a speedy recovery and faster return to work than traditional surgical approaches. The benefits of robotic surgery are two-fold, both the patient and surgeon benefit from its use.
Patients benefit from:
Significantly less pain
Reduced loss of blood
Less scarring
Faster recovery
More procedure options
Surgeons benefit from:
Enhanced surgical ergonomics
