About Our Robotics Program
Expertise, technology and teamwork is reflected in our expanding robotic surgery program. Skilled surgeons offer robotic surgery with the da Vinci® S and Si HD Surgical Systems. The robot gives our surgeons the ability to perform complex and delicate surgery. The scarring can be minimal, and many patients have less pain after surgery and return back to work within weeks. All of these benefits can lead to a faster recovery with an improved overall patient experience.
By integrating computer-enhanced technology with our surgeons’ skill, Lehigh Valley Health Network’s robotic surgeons offer patients the latest in surgical innovation often with improved patient outcomes when compared to traditional techniques.
As a result, patient benefits can include:
- Smaller incisions
- Less pain, scarring and recovery time
- Shorter hospital stay
- Spared fertility
- Lower risk for infection
- Less blood loss and fewer transfusions
- Quicker return to normal activities
