Minimally Invasive Robotic Surgery

Minimally invasive, robotic options for many medical conditions

Robotic surgery is a type of minimally invasive surgery. It allows doctors to treat part of your body through tiny surgical incisions, using special robotic tools. Procedures that once required large incisions and a long recovery can now be performed robotically– which can result in shorter hospital stays, quicker recovery times and less blood loss.


Our experienced robotic surgeons are leaders in the field and have performed thousands of advanced procedures on patients throughout San Diego County.
