What is robotic surgery?

Robotic surgery is a type of minimally invasive surgery in which doctors use robotic technology to perform procedures. Despite its name, robotic surgery is performed by highly experienced, specially trained surgeons who are assisted by an integrated system of advanced computer and robotic technologies.

Our expert surgeons perform robotic surgeries across numerous specialties, including:

Bariatric surgery
Colorectal surgery
General surgery
Gynecologic surgery, including hysterectomy
Orthopedic surgery
Thoracic surgery
Urologic surgery, including prostatectomy and nephrectomy

How does robotic surgery work?

During a procedure, your surgeon is 100 percent in control of the robot. Through a high-tech control module, surgeons move small operating instruments that allow for extremely precise movements.

The surgeon operates from a console just a few feet away from the operating table, and his or her hand movements translate to the robotic technology. The robot has tiny surgical instruments and a high-definition, 3D camera, which aids in an efficient, successful procedure.

Robotic single-site surgery

Robotic surgery offers the possibility of a single-incision surgery for select patients needing a hysterectomy or cholecystectomy. Patients who receive this type of procedure usually experience virtually scarless results. To accomplish this, surgeons operate through only one small incision in the navel (belly button). After a fast recovery, the scar is almost impossible to see.
