ROBOTIC ASSISTED SURGERY PROCEDURES
 Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) allows physicians to perform many kinds of major surgery with less patient trauma and pain, minimal scarring, faster recovery and shorter hospital stays. Surgeries are performed through small incisions, which replace the large incisions needed for conventional open surgeries.
The use of robotics takes minimally invasive techniques into a new era, further minimizing the physical and emotional impact of surgery on patients. With minimally invasive surgery, the goal is to accomplish internal repair while leaving the body surface as natural as it was prior to surgery.
Robotic-Assisted Surgery Procedures at Southwest:
Many procedures require only several days in the hospital and promote reduced recovery time. Patients can often get back to their normal routines more quickly.
Robotic surgery can be used for a variety of surgical procedures.
At Southwest Washington Medical Center, we specialize in robotic surgery for gynecology and urology.
