Why choose Mercy for robotic-assisted surgery? The benefits to patients treated with robotic-assisted surgical techniques include such things as shorter hospital stays and quicker recovery times, less pain, scarring and loss of blood, plus a reduced risk of wound infections. All that said, why should you choose Mercy for your treatment?
The Sacramento area Mercy hospitals and our team of specially trained surgeons lead the way in the use of technologically advanced treatment techniques such as superDimension for the early diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer and the da Vinci? Surgical System which can be used to treat a wide range of conditions.
In Northern California, Mercy offers the most comprehensive use of the da Vinci? Surgical System, treating patients in the areas of:
