Robotic Surgery

Robotic surgery is an effective, minimally invasive surgery alternative to open surgery. Through robotic technologies like the da Vinci® Surgical System and the Mako Robotic-Arm Assisted Surgical System, major surgery can be performed through the smallest of incisions. Benefits include less pain, a shorter hospital stay and a faster return to normal daily activities.

Flexibility

Most inpatient and same-day procedures are performed at our main hospital campus or at a nearby surgery center in Rancho Mirage. Outpatient surgeries and procedures are offered at the Jerry and Kathleen Grundhofer Surgery Center, GI Lab?? Eisenhower Desert Orthopedic Surgery Center on the Eisenhower main campus. Your surgeon will determine which facility is the best location for your surgery based on your condition and individual needs.
