Experience Counts

For more than 20 years, Aurora Health Care has been leading the way with new
and advanced technologies that speed patient recoveries and offer increased levels of
surgical precision.

On September 26, 2001, Aurora St. Luke's Medical Center was the first hospital in Wisconsin
to adopt the da Vinci® Surgical System and has since become one of the Midwest's most
experienced providers.

The da Vinci System offers patients an alternative to traditional open surgery or conventional laparoscopy,
putting the surgeon's hands at the controls of state-of-the-art robotic instruments. By way of several
tiny incisions, surgeons are able to clearly view important anatomical structures and perform the most
complex and delicate procedures with unmatched precision.

As a pioneer in robotic-assisted surgery, Aurora physicians are among the most experienced in the Midwest and have successfully performed more than 1,000 procedures with the da Vinci System.  Our experience is your assurance of the best outcome.

The da Vinci System is already being used at Aurora St. Luke's to benefit patients requiring heart surgery, hyperhidrosis surgery, achalasia surgery, prostate surgery and gynecologic surgery. Consistently, our patients report much less pain and more rapid return to every day activities.
