10,000 is a large quantity of surgeries. What’s more important is the quality of patient care and recovery because of these surgeries. The benefits of robotic surgeries include smaller total incision areas, faster recovery time and most patients are discharged the same day. If surgical procedures are in your future, talk to your provider to see if you are a candidate for a robotic procedure.

A milestone in precision care!

We’re excited to announce that our robotics team (physicians and staff) recently surpassed 10,000 robotic-assisted surgeries! That means 10,000 patients received experienced surgical care with advanced technology, smaller incisions, and faster recoveries. We’ve provided robotic surgeries since 2010, and with precision and accuracy at the core of each procedure, we're shaping the future of surgery to help ensure quicker recoveries and better outcomes for our patients. Congratulations to our high-performing robotics team members!
