Robotic Surgery
University of Louisville Hospital surgeons are among the best trained, most experienced surgeons in the country with a history of working at the leading edge of medical advances.
With the state-of-the-art da Vinci Si Robotic Surgical system, patients at University of Louisville Hospital can benefit from minimally invasive surgery in the hands of the most qualified surgeons in the region.
With its 3D HD vision, the da Vinci’s robotic arms offer the surgeon the ability to rotate instruments more than 360 degrees through tiny incisions and assist them in technically precise maneuvers involved in advanced minimally invasive surgeries, particularly gynecologic, gastrointestinal, and prostate procedures.
University Hospital has a unique program that combines:
- More than a dozen robotically skilled surgeons working in five different specialties, backed by Brown Cancer Center multidisciplinary teams
- A dedicated surgical support team of nurses and technicians specially trained in robotic surgery, performing more than 300 robotic surgical cases per year
- Expertise in more than xx robotic procedures for more than xx different conditions, including complex cases
- A national training program in colorectal procedures led by a UofL surgeon
University of Louisville Hospital performs more daVinci-assisted surgeries than any healthcare provider in the region. With this technology, we are able to offer patients more positive results: shorter hospital stays, quicker recoveries, less scarring and better outcomes.
