Gynecologic Surgery
When you need gynecologic surgery, it’s important to find a surgeon with experience and access to advanced techniques and technology. At Carondelet St. Joseph’s Hospital, our skilled surgeons are trained to treat a wide range of gynecologic conditions using precise surgery, including employing minimally invasive and robotic-assisted surgical options when possible.
Robotic Surgery
At Carondelet St. Joseph’s we offer robot-assisted surgery for a variety of gynecologic procedures, including hysterectomies. Using the da Vinci Surgical System, surgeons can create much smaller incisions than required by traditional surgeries. This type of surgery offers several potential advantages over traditional surgery, including:
- Faster recovery
- Shorter hospital stay
- Quicker return to normal lifestyle
- Less scarring
Carondelet Health Network and Carondelet Medical Group were instrumental in bringing this surgical technology to the region. We have multiple surgeons who are specially trained and certified to control this advanced robotic tool. This team has performed thousands of robotics surgeries at St. Joseph’s Hospital with very few complications.
When it comes to the care of your most private needs, trust Carondelet to provide the most advanced, compassionate care.
The da Vinci Robotic Surgical System creates small incisions (and in some cases, only a single cut) that facilitate a faster recovery, shorter hospital stay and a quicker return to your normal lifestyle.
