What does da Vinci robotic surgery do?
When you’re planning on having surgery, you may worry how long it’ll take, how painful it’ll be, will it leave scars, and how long is the recovery. You want to work with the most skilled doctor you can find to ensure a successful surgery and the shortest and easiest recovery.
The expert doctors at OBGYN Care use the latest technology to provide patients with the best surgical experience possible. They’re trained experts in da Vinci robotic surgery techniques, minimally invasive technology that’s making a big difference in surgery for a wide variety of gynecological conditions.
The da Vinci surgical technique uses a robotic arm equipped with a high-resolution camera that enhances a surgeon’s ability to provide a top-notch surgical experience. The robotic arm allows surgeons to make precise, difficult movements with tiny surgical instruments. The result is smaller incisions, which means less pain and quicker healing time.
Precision surgery with the da Vinci robotic system results in:
- Less pain
- Less scarring
- Lower risk of complications
- Quicker recovery
- Lower chance of infections
- Less blood loss
