San Diego Robotic Surgery

Sharp HealthCare is proud to offer patients a safe and less-invasive alternative to both traditional open surgery and conventional laparoscopy.

Robotic surgery uses state-of-the-art technology that allows the surgeon's hand movements to translate into extremely precise movements within the operative site. The magnified, three-dimensional view and small, robotic instruments enhance the surgeon's ability to perform complex procedures through small incisions. The benefits of robotic surgery are many and include faster recovery and return to normal activities, less pain, less scarring and a shorter hospital stay.
