Robotic Surgery

Bariatric (weight loss) surgery using a robot called the da Vinci Robotic System. Robotic surgery uses small incisions instead of a large abdominal incision and therefore is less invasive than traditional bariatric surgery.

Robotic weight loss surgery is performed using the da Vinci Robotic Surgery System. The da Vinci robot is a surgical assistance tool that enables bariatric surgeons to perform weight loss surgery using computer-guided, magnified, 3-D visualization.

A surgeon will maneuver the robot through small incisions in the patient's abdomen. Using four robotic arms, the surgeon will make movements and the robot will translate the movement into ultra-precise movements inside your body.
