Robotic Surgery Specialist

What is robotic surgery?

Robotic surgery is a method used for performing many complex surgical procedures. During robotic surgery, your surgeon uses a robotic system to make incisions, remove tissue, and place sutures.

Many people think that robotic surgery is fully automated, but rest assured that your surgeon is still in charge. Robotic systems are merely one of the tools Dr. Martinez uses to ensure the best possible surgery outcome. 

What are the benefits of robotic surgery?

Robotic systems allow surgeons like Dr. Martinez to perform procedures with greater precision. These systems are often used for minimally invasive procedures, which use small incisions and thin surgical tools. This approach helps your surgeon prevent surgical complications.

Open surgery often requires large incisions. Minimally invasive robotic surgery makes tiny incisions that heal much faster. They're also less likely to become infected or trigger significant blood loss. 

Most people who undergo robotic surgery recover very quickly. You can usually return to your normal activities within a few weeks instead of several months.

What surgical procedures are performed using robotic techniques?

Many conditions are first treated with medications or lifestyle changes. Sometimes, these treatments aren't enough. 

If first-line treatments don't resolve your symptoms, Dr. Martinez may suggest surgery. Surgery helps treat stubborn conditions like:

• Uterine fibroids
• Ovarian cysts
• Cancer
• Endometriosis
• Pelvic inflammatory disease
• Pelvic organ prolapses
• Incontinence
• Pelvic pain
• Abnormal bleeding

If you need surgery, Dr. Martinez helps you choose the procedure that's right for you. Dr. Martinez knows how to treat complex gynecological conditions like endometriosis. As a board-certified OB/GYN, he's also qualified to manage a wide range of pregnancy complications.

No matter your health needs, Dr. Martinez helps you find a procedure that improves your health. During your consultation, he'll let you know what surgical techniques he plans to use and how these techniques will improve your condition. Dr. Martinez and his team provide top-quality care both before and after your operation.
