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.

While having surgery can be a stressful experience, our team is here to support you and focus on getting you back to your daily life as soon as possible.
One of the ways HCA Florida Capital Hospital does this, is by providing you with access to minimally invasive procedures, including robot-assisted surgery. With robotic technology, our surgeon's hand movements are seamlessly translated to the robotic system into precise movements. Similar to other minimally invasive alternatives, such as laparoscopy, this approach often enables you to have more positive postoperative results and a faster recovery.

Robotic technology for knee and hip replacement
We offer robot-assisted surgery for total hip, total knee and partial knee replacements. Using computerized tomography (CT) scanning, our orthopedic surgeons create a 3D model of your anatomy to allow them to make a personalized surgical plan before surgery. That plan includes implant size, orientation and alignment. This type of technology promotes better outcomes for hip and knee replacements.
