Many women live with gynecologic conditions on a day-to-day basis that significantly decrease their quality of life.

If medical or noninvasive procedures are ineffective in treating symptoms of gynecologic decease, surgery often provides the most effective treatment. Traditional gynecologic surgery uses a large incision to access the uterus and pelvic organs. This has been standard approach used in many gynecologic procedures.

Fortunately, minimally invasive options now are available. For complex hysterectomies and other gynecologic procedures, robotic-assisted surgery with the da Vinci Surgical System is considered to be the most effective and least invasive treatment option.

Gynecologic conditions, including cancers of the cervix and uterus, uterine fibroids, uterine prolapse, endometriosis, and excessive bleeding, all can be addressed by gynecologic surgeons using da Vinci robotic-assisted surgery. Through tiny, 1- to 2-cm incisions, surgeons can operate with extraordinary precision and control. Postoperative pain and surgical risks decrease while the likelihood of fast recovery increases.

Harrison Medical Center's skilled gynecologic surgeons perform many hysterectomies. Their experience and dedication to patients creates an ideal environment in which healing can occur. Add to that specialized nursing care in private rooms within a modern healthcare setting at our Silverdale campus. Most patients are able to return home 24 hours after their procedure and quickly resume normal activities.
