A number of physicians at The Woman's Group are now performing minimally invasive, robotic surgery using the da Vinci® System.  This new method uses only a few tiny incisions.  The benefits of this approach include less pain, fewer complications, less blood loss, lower risk of infection and shorter hospital stays (usually 24 hrs. or less).  All these sum up to a quicker recovery and return to normal activities.

Until recently, surgery for most gynecologic conditions was performed using a large abdominal incision.  While laparoscopic surgery had been effective for many routine procedures, the long-handled, rigid instruments used in laparoscopy were considered ineffective for delicate or complex operations such as hysterectomies.  The da Vinci's System  offers  capabilities to overcome these drawbacks.  Featuring 3D, high definition vision and miniaturized – wristed surgical instruments, the da Vinci system helps doctors  take surgery beyond the limit of their hands.

If your doctor recommends a hysterectomy to treat your condition, you may be a candidate for da Vinci Surgery. For more information, please see http://davincihysterectomy.com
