Minimally invasive surgery
At Adventist Health Sonora, our team has been trained to know what approaches can be the most beneficial for your outcome. Sometimes this calls for minimally invasive surgical procedures and, other times, more conventional care. Our advanced minimally invasive surgery solutions include laparoscopic and robotic-assisted surgical procedures that use small incisions for numerous benefits, including:
- Less pain during recovery
- Shorter hospital stays
- Quicker recovery time
- Less scarring
- Reduced blood loss
Acute and emergency surgery
You can’t always plan when you’ll need surgery. Some surgeries are required on a moment’s notice. Fortunately, the surgical team at Adventist Health Sonora is always at the ready. Surgical emergencies and acute healthcare needs include appendicitis, gallbladder attacks, and severe fractures or trauma to the body. No matter the cause, you can rest easy knowing our highly skilled surgeons are available 24/7 to perform emergency surgery, as well as elective surgery.
