When you’re facing surgery, the little things matter — clear answers, consistent support, and knowing you’re in the right hands.

With Dr. Muffoletto, care is focused, personal, and built around what’s best for you. Robotic techniques may mean smaller incisions and less downtime, but what patients notice most is how supported they feel throughout the process.

If you’re considering surgery and want a more thoughtful approach, our team is here to help.

National Healthcare Decisions Day is a reminder that informed decisions start with asking the right questions.

Understanding your options and what each path means is a key part of your care.

Here are a few questions worth asking:

• What are all of my treatment options?
• What happens if I wait or monitor this?
• What are the risks and benefits of each option?
• What will recovery look like?
• Is this something that needs to be addressed now?

Taking the time to ask these questions can help you feel more confident, informed, and prepared for what comes next.

If you’re looking for a clear, thoughtful evaluation of your options, our team is here to help.

A surgical referral is more than a next step. It’s an opportunity to better understand the full clinical picture.

Dr. Muffoletto’s approach to evaluation focuses on confirming diagnosis, reviewing history and imaging, and determining the most appropriate path forward based on each patient’s individual case.

Not every evaluation leads directly to surgery, but each one provides clarity for both the provider and the patient.

For referral coordination or consultation, our office is available to assist.

A reminder that understanding your body is one of the most important parts of your health.

Small changes, new symptoms, or things that feel “off” are worth paying attention to, even if they don’t seem urgent.

Taking the time to check in now can help create better outcomes later! 💪

Hernias often begin subtly, like a small bulge, mild discomfort, or symptoms that come and go.

Over time, those symptoms can change. What starts as occasional pressure may become more noticeable, more uncomfortable, and more persistent.

Understanding how hernias progress can help patients recognize when it’s time to seek evaluation.

If you’ve noticed changes in your symptoms, it may be worth discussing with your provider or scheduling a consultation.

Stress doesn’t always look the way you expect it to.

It can show up in your body — through fatigue, tension, poor sleep, or just feeling off.

Here are a few simple ways to better manage it:

• Stay active: Even light movement like walking can help regulate stress levels
• Prioritize sleep: Consistent, quality sleep plays a major role in how your body handles stress
• Take breaks throughout the day: Stepping away for a bit can help reset focus and reduce tension
• Maintain routine: Structure can help create a sense of stability during stressful periods
• Pay attention to physical signals: Fatigue, tension, or changes in appetite can all be signs your body is under stress
• Talk to someone you trust: Whether it’s a friend, family member, or provider, support matters

Managing stress doesn’t require major changes. Small, consistent habits can make a meaningful difference over time!

A bulge in the abdomen or groin is something worth paying attention to.

Many hernias start small and may only appear during certain activities like standing, coughing, or lifting. Over time, however, they can become more noticeable or uncomfortable.

Understanding the early signs can help patients seek evaluation sooner and avoid more complicated problems later.

Why do surgeons use robotic surgery?

Robotic technology allows surgeons to operate with enhanced precision, improved visualization, and greater control during minimally invasive procedures.

For many operations — including hernia repair and endocrine surgery — this approach can help reduce tissue disruption and support a smoother recovery for patients.
