What are the benefits for patients associated with robotic-assisted surgery?
During robotic-assisted surgery, patients typically experience less blood loss (fewer transfusions) and less pain. Also, because incisions are much smaller and patients experience less trauma than in open surgery, patient benefits may include a shorter hospital stay, less pain, less risk of infection, less blood loss, fewer transfusions, less scarring, faster recovery and a quicker return to normal daily activities. None of these benefits can be guaranteed, as surgery can be both patient- and procedure-specific. Read success stories from some of our patients.
