Robotic Surgery

Saint Thomas Health physicians offer the most robust multi-specialty approach for robotic surgery in the region.

The hospitals of Saint Thomas Health are changing the surgical experience for patients and re-writing the accepted standards for surgical care through the use of the most advanced robotic surgery system available. The minimally invasive treatment option is performed through the smallest of incisions, so patients typically experience less pain, a shorter hospital stay and a faster return to normal daily activities.

A variety of conditions that can be treated utilizing robotic surgery, include:

• Coronary Artery Disease
• Mitral Valve Prolapse
• Urologic Cancers (including Prostate, Bladder and Kidney)
• Gynecologic Conditions (including cervical and uterine cancer)
• Lung cancer (which may require a lobectomy to remove the section of the lung containing the tumor)
• Thyroid or Throat Cancer
