We utilize cutting-edge surgical technology in the areas of breast cancer surgery, colorectal surgery, laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery, minimally invasive endocrine surgery and bariatric surgery.

When surgery is recommended, it's comforting to know that our physicians are some of the area leaders in minimally invasive surgery (MIS). Patients benefit from MIS which uses smaller incisions, shortens recovery time and is less painful than traditional open surgeries. 

 

Less Pain & Faster Recovery

Using the da VinciĀ® Surgical System, the surgeon operates while seated comfortably at a console viewing a 3-D image of the surgical field. The surgeon's fingers grasp the instrument controls below the display with wrists naturally positioned relative to his or her eyes. For the patient, numerous benefits are derived from using the da VinciĀ® system in surgery. Some of these benefits include reduced trauma, less pain, shorter hospital stay and faster recovery.
