Less-invasive procedures

In addition to traditional open surgery, we perform laparoscopic surgery for a range of conditions. During a minimally invasive procedure, the surgeon makes one or more small incisions—usually about a half-inch long. The surgeon then inserts a tube through which the doctor can place cameras and specially designed instruments to perform the surgery.

Compared to traditional open surgery, patients who undergo minimally invasive surgery often experience:

  • Less pain
  • Reduced blood loss
  • Faster recovery
