Robotic Surgery expert

The use of robotics takes minimally invasive techniques into a new era, further minimizing the physical and emotional impact of surgery on patients. Robotically assisted MIS represents a third generation of surgery, one which builds upon the advances to open surgery introduced by MIS. Robotic technology takes surgery beyond the limits of the human hand, introducing precise, versatile instrument movement combined with three-dimensional visualization of the operative site

Benefits of Robotic Surgery... For the Surgeon

- Magnified 3D visualization for optimum viewing within the operative site
- Increased precision, control and range of motion of micro-instruments
- Tremor filtration
- Improved access to and manipulation of organs, tissues and nerves

Benefits of Robotic Surgery... For the Patient

- Shorter hospitalization
- Potentially reduced pain
- Faster recovery times
- Smaller incisions, resulting in reduced risk of infection, less blood loss and minimal scarring
- Patients resume normal activities sooner .
