Minimally invasive surgery
Minimally invasive surgery is an effective surgical method that is less intrusive than traditional surgery. By using small incisions and instruments, we are able to create positive surgical outcomes that typically have minimal scarring, faster recovery times and shorter hospital stays.

Hernia repair
Surgery is the only way to restore proper function for patients with hernias. However, symptoms can often be managed through lifestyle changes. Hernia surgery aims to place all the tissues that have expanded back to their original location and repair the weakened area in the abdominal wall. Our surgeons are well versed in all types of hernia repairs, including single-site robot-assisted surgery through the belly button.
Benefits of robotic surgery
Robotic surgery is one type of minimally invasive surgery offering patients a less invasive option to traditional surgery.
There are many advantages to having a robot-assisted procedure, including:
- Smaller incisions
- Minimal scarring
- Shorter hospital stay
- Less blood loss
- Fewer surgical and postoperative complications
- Reduced need for pain management
- Faster recovery time
