Minimally Invasive Surgery
Our physicians offer the latest advances in women’s health care. These new techniques and treatments have the advantage of being less invasive, less painful, more cost effective and easier on the patient. Other benefits include less time away from work and family as well as a wider selection of treatment options.
- TLH – Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy
- LSH – Laparoscopic Supracervical Hysterectomy
- Robotically Assisted Surgery/ Da Vinci® Surgery, is an effective, minimally invasive treatment alternative for a range of uterine conditions. Dr. Mary Schneider and Dr. Kevin Hamburger are specially trained in da Vinci procedures. With numerous potential benefits over traditional approaches, da Vinci procedures are less painful, have fewer complications and shorter hospital stays. Dr. Schneider and Dr. Hamburger utilize the da Vinci surgical system at Mercy Medical Center.
The system's three-dimensional optics and advanced instrumentation allow our physicians to perform even more complex procedures through a minimally invasive approach. Patients experience less postoperative pain, shorter hospital stays, quicker return to normal activities and less scarring.
