Center for Minimally Invasive Surgery

In the last two decades, technological advances have made it possible to perform many surgeries without creating a large incision or requiring a prolonged recuperation period. The benefits of this technique-called minimally invasive or laparoscopic surgery-are shorter hospital stays, less pain and scarring and reduced complications.

The Center for Minimally Invasive Surgery does thousands of surgeries every year. Our highly skilled surgeons are experts in laparoscopic surgery and are committed to making the patient experience the best it can be.
