Steven A. Matzinger, MD, PhD performs minimally invasive and robotic surgery – the least invasive surgical treatments available. These types of surgeries provide an alternative to both traditional open surgery and conventional laparoscopy. Robotic-assisted surgery enables surgeons to perform even the most complex and delicate procedures through very small incisions with unmatched precision.
Benefits of Robotic Surgery:
- Reduced trauma to the body
- Reduced blood loss and need for transfusion
- Less post-operative pain and discomfort
- Less post-operative medication
- Lower risk of infection
- Shorter hospital stay
- Faster recovery and quicker return to normal activities
- Less scarring
