Gastrointestinal surgery, including colon surgery and gallbladder removal

Prostate surgery, including prostatectomy or resection of the prostate

Endoscopy

Your doctor may recommend a minimally invasive procedure using an endoscope to diagnose a condition or confirm the effectiveness of treatment. An endoscope is a thin tube with a camera and light on the end that is used to help doctors examine different parts of the body. Examples of endoscopic procedures we perform include:

Biopsies, which remove a cell or tissue sample to check for cancer
Colonoscopies, which examine the large and small bowel via colonoscope
Bronchoscopies, which examine the lungs and air passages via bronchoscope
Esophagus scopes, which examine the esophagus, stomach and upper duodenum via endoscope
PH monitoring, which measures how often stomach acid enters the esophagus

Robotic surgery

Through robot-assisted technology, our surgeons can operate with greater precision using smaller incisions than traditional surgery. Benefits include:

Faster recovery
Less pain
Less scarring
Shorter hospital stays

During robot-assisted surgery, your surgeon sits at a control panel and guides the surgical instruments. This console provides a 3D, high-definition view of your anatomy with accurate depth perception, and it allows the surgeon to control the robotic arms. These arms manipulate tissue with more dexterity and accuracy than what is humanly possible.

We offer robotic surgery in the following areas:

General surgery, including gallbladder removal, hernia repair and colon resection
Gynecology, including hysterectomies, myomectomies and surgeries for uterine conditions
Urology, including prostatectomies and other types of surgery for prostate cancer

Rehabilitation after surgery

For many patients, physical therapy is an important part of the recovery process. If needed, we can connect you with a professional who will provide guidance on the best ways to restore strength, balance and mobility after your procedure. We also offer neurorehabilitation, a special type of neurological care tailored to manage symptoms related to disorders affecting the central nervous system.
