Our Surgeries
At our clinics, we address a wide range of patient needs, illnesses, and issues that include specific organ surgeries, breast exams, and other services. As part of our ethical code, we address these issues through surgical means, only when absolutely necessary. Laparoscopic surgeries may include certain benefits in comparison to open surgeries. However, not all surgeries should be performed through robotics, so we offer the more traditional open surgeries to address specific patient issues. When it is necessary, the spectrum of surgeries include the following:
Laparoscopic / Robotic surgery
Some of the benefits of laparoscopic surgery may include significantly less time needed for recovery, less post-operative pain, and usually a much smaller scar.
