If you and your doctor have decided surgery is necessary, St. Bernardine Medical Center’s da Vinci® Surgical System may offer you a safer, more effective alternative to traditional open surgery or laparoscopy.
Fast-forward from laparoscopic surgical advances in recent decades to state-of-the-art robotic surgical tools that take the patient experience and clinical outcomes to yet another level.St. Bernardine is recognized by the Surgical Review Corporation as a Center of Excellence in Robotic Surgery.
Robot-assisted surgery is an even less invasive surgical alternative available for more complex conditions. In most cases, this minimally invasive surgery results in decreased pain, less need for narcotics and a lower risk of infection.
The da Vinci Surgical System® is a sophisticated robotic platform designed to expand your surgeon’s capabilities and offer a minimally invasive option for major surgery. It is used to treat complex conditions ranging from cancer to uterine prolapse to nerve-sparing prostatectomies. The majority of women’s gynecological surgeries can be performed using da Vinci, as can most urological, many gastroenterology and general surgeries, and some procedures.
Before you decide on surgery, discuss your options with your doctor to understand potential benefits and risks.
Every patient surgical experience varies, but the benefits many patients experience with minimally invasive robotic surgery include a shorter hospital stay, less pain, and less risk of infection. During robotic-assisted surgery, your surgeon will make a few small incisions, and use a 3D high-definition camera for a crystal-clear, magnified view of the surgical area. Learn More
