Remember hearing about your mother’s hysterectomy? Typically, the surgery involved a large painful incision, five-day hospitalization, long recovery, and six-week leave from work and regular activities.
San Ramon Regional Medical Center recently purchased the latest da Vinci® Si Surgical System with computerized robotics. Our gynecologists perform minimally invasive hysterectomies and other gynecologic procedures using the da Vinci® technology. Incisions are tiny, many surgeries are performed as an overnight hospitalization, recovery time is reduced, and many patients return to work and regular activities in a week. Learn who is a candidate for these surgeries, what to expect, and the recovery process.
