Consisting of two operating rooms, an endoscopy suite and a special same-day procedure suite, Floyd Valley Healthcare’s surgery center is equipped with the latest technology, ensuring the best possible care and outcomes. 

The surgery center provides expert, personalized care from three general surgeons, surgical specialists, nurses, anesthetists and a compassionate staff as well as a safe and comfortable place to recover. Our approach often allows for less invasive procedures and faster recovery times.

Da Vinci Robotic-Assisted Surgery at Floyd Valley Healthcare

Traditional open surgery, where a surgeon operates with handheld instruments through a large cut (incision), may be the first method that comes to mind when discussing a surgical procedure. However, you could also be a candidate for a less invasive approach requiring just a few small cuts, called minimally invasive surgery. Minimally invasive surgery includes laparoscopic surgery and robotic-assisted surgery.

Doctors use many technologies that enhance their capabilities beyond what the human body allows. MRI and CT scanners, for example, enable doctors to “see” inside the body. Similarly, many surgeons perform robotic-assisted surgery using a da Vinci system because it extends the capabilities of their eyes and hands.

The da Vinci vision system delivers 3D high-definition views, giving your surgeon a crystal-clear view of the surgical area that is magnified 10 times to what the human eye sees.

Your surgeon uses tiny instruments that move like a human hand but with a far greater range of motion. The system’s built-in tremor-filtration technology helps your surgeon move each instrument with smooth precision.

Da Vinci surgical systems are cleared for use in several types of surgery, and different procedures that can be performed with a da Vinci system at Floyd Valley Healthcare.

Every day, thousands of people have a robotic-assisted procedure with the da Vinci surgical system. If you or a loved one will soon be one of them, it’s helpful for you to understand what robotic-assisted surgery is and what to expect the day of surgery.
