da Vinci Colorectal Surgery / Robotic Surgery
The da Vinci System is a state-of-the-art surgical platform with 3D, high-definition vision and patented surgical instruments that takes surgery beyond the limits of the human hand.
By overcoming the challenges of traditional open and laparoscopic surgery, da Vinci is changing the experience of surgery for people around the world.
We use the most up to date medical equipment used in the testing and treatment of medical and surgical conditions. Most surgery can be performed with minimal discomfort on a out-patient basis, and in some cases, with no incisions. Minimally invasive procedures are performed through one or more dime-sized incisions, with much less trauma to the body. Minimally invasive and non-invasive procedures result in little or no scarring from surgery.
State of the Art Robotic Surgical Care
We offer patients the highest quality care available in our state-of-the-art, Medicare accredited, state-licensed surgery center. This avoids treatment in the hospital, reduces cost, lessens pain, scarring, and 
recovery time.
You may be a candidate for minimally invasive da Vinci Surgery. Using state-of-the-art technology, the da Vinci System enables delicate and complex operations through a few tiny incisions with breakthrough vision, precision, dexterity, and control.
da Vinci Surgery is used to treat such colorectal conditions as: colon cancer, rectal cancer, diverticulitis, and inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease). Surgery to remove all or part of the colon is known as a colectomy. Rectal cancer surgery is known as a low anterior resection.
da Vinci offers patients facing colon surgery
(right, left or sigmoid colectomy) such potential benefits as:
- Low blood loss

da Vinci offers patients facing rectal cancer surgery

As with any surgery, these benefits cannot be guaranteed since surgery is specific to each patient, condition, and procedure.
