Frequently Asked Questions
A. Robotic surgery combines the skills of our surgeons with advanced robotic technology, which improves visualization with magnification and enhanced identification of anatomical structures. Robotic surgery is minimally invasive with less scarring and less pain, faster recovery with a shorter hospital stay, and typically results in high patient satisfaction.
A. Colorectal, cardiac, gynecologic, hepatobiliary, thoracic, and urologic.
A. Huntington Hospital hosts the largest community-based robotic program in the San Gabriel Valley with dedicated operating rooms and an experienced robotic team.
We offer minimally invasive robotic surgery utilizing the state-of-the-art da Vinci surgical system, the latest generation of robotic surgery equipment, to perform increasingly complex laparoscopic procedures. Huntington has been offering robotic surgery for over 20 years.
A. The techniques used during robotic surgery are like the ones used during open, traditional surgery. The main difference is how your surgeon accesses the surgical area. Instead of making one large incision, your surgeon makes a few small incisions. Another difference is that the surgical instruments require less space to do their job. This limits the need to push tissue, muscle and organs aside.
A. In general, recovery is much shorter compared to traditional surgery. Depending on the procedure type and your overall health, you may get out of bed shortly after the anesthesia wears off, be able to eat within a few hours of surgery, and go home the same day or next day.
