Do you have a gynecological condition that needs surgery? That can be scary, but surgery doesn’t have to be an intense and stressful event. If you’re looking for the safest, smoothest surgery possible, surgery with less pain and the shortest recovery time, learn more about da Vinci® robot-assisted surgery.
Drs. Catalin Marinescu and Kendra Baker at OBGYN Care in Newport Beach and Irvine, CA, use da Vinci® to treat a host of gynecological conditions. Read on to learn more about how this revolutionary surgery technique can help you.
When you’re planning on having surgery, you may worry how long it’ll take, how painful it’ll be, will it leave scars, and how long is the recovery. You want to work with the most skilled doctor you can find to ensure a successful surgery and the shortest and easiest recovery.
The expert doctors at OBGYN Care use the latest technology to provide patients with the best surgical experience possible. They’re trained experts in da Vinci robotic surgery techniques, minimally invasive technology that’s making a big difference in surgery for a wide variety of gynecological conditions.
The da Vinci surgical technique uses a robotic arm equipped with a high-resolution camera that enhances a surgeon’s ability to provide a top-notch surgical experience. The robotic arm allows surgeons to make precise, difficult movements with tiny surgical instruments. The result is smaller incisions, which means less pain and quicker healing time.
