Robotic Surgery

Find A Robotic Surgery Specialist That's Right For You

Take the next step toward a surgical consultation.

When you have been diagnosed with a condition that requires surgery, you will often have a choice when medically appropriate between a large incision or laparoscopy (minimally invasive surgery with small incisions).

Robotic surgery is a minimally invasive approach that allows surgeons to operate with enhanced precision through small cuts. Surgeons control the robotic system at all times using high-definition, 3D visualization to perform complex procedures with greater accuracy.

The Erlanger Surgical Robotics Team offers one of the largest and most advanced robotic surgery programs in the Southeast, combining leading-edge technology with highly experienced surgeons to deliver minimally invasive care across multiple specialties.
