Why choose Dignity Health for robotic-assisted surgery? The benefits to patients treated with robotic-assisted surgical techniques include such things as shorter hospital stays and quicker recovery times, less pain, scarring and loss of blood, plus a reduced risk of wound infections. All that said, why should you choose Dignity Health for your treatment?
The Sacramento area Dignity Health hospitals and our team of specially trained surgeons lead the way in the use of technologically advanced treatment techniques such as superDimension for the early diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer and the da Vinci® Surgical System which can be used to treat a wide range of conditions.
In Northern California, Dignity Health offers the most comprehensive use of the da Vinci® Surgical System, treating patients in the areas of:
Dignity Health Firsts:
-
Dignity Health-affiliated urologist Javid Javidan, MD, completed the first robotic nephroureterectomy in Northern California to treat kidney cancer. This complex procedure has only been completed by two robotic surgeons in all of California -
Dignity Health-affiliated colorectal surgeon James Myers, MD, is the only robotic-trained colorectal surgeon in the greater Sacramento area
As with any surgery, these benefits cannot be guaranteed, as surgery is unique to each patient and procedure. The da Vinci Surgical System is considered safe and effective, but may not be appropriate for everyone. Always talk to your doctor about all treatment options, as well as the associated benefits and risks.
