Minimally-Invasive Surgery

Our team offers minimally invasive surgical options whenever possible. Minimally invasive surgery means your surgeon will use methods that require smaller or fewer incisions (cuts) and allow for faster recovery. There are many types of minimally invasive surgery used across all areas of the body. The two main types are:

• Laparoscopy: A type of surgery that allows a surgeon to look inside the body using small incisions (cuts)
• Robotic surgery: A type of procedure that allows a surgeon to do complex surgery with more control using a camera and robotic arm
