Patient benefits

By using minimally-invasive surgery techniques, we offer patients many benefits over traditional surgeries. They include:

Less Pain
Minimally-invasive procedures cause less post-operative pain and discomfort, and require smaller doses of pain relievers than patients undergoing traditional surgeries.

Shorter Hospital Stay
Shorter hospital stay and quicker return to normal activities. Patients who undergo minimally-invasive procedures are usually able to go home sooner. And, in many cases, the patient is able to return to normal activities and work more quickly.

Less Scarring
Minimally-invasive procedures require smaller incisions – which means smaller, less noticeable scars. The scars that do form typically have a less jagged edge – giving them a more appealing look.

Less Injury to Tissue
Most traditional surgeries require a long incision. This incision usually has to be made through muscle. Muscle needs a significant time to heal after surgery. Because there are no long incisions, surgeons often do not have to cut through muscles to complete the procedure – leading to less tissue damage and quicker recovery.

Higher Accuracy Rate
Because minimally-invasive procedures use video-assisted equipment, the surgeon has better visualization and magnification of internal organs and structure. For patients, this translates into a more accurate and definitive procedure.
