Robot Assisted Surgery

When utilized, robot-assisted surgery allows the physician to perform many types of minimally invasive procedures with more flexibility, control, and better visualization than can be possible with conventional surgical techniques. Benefits can be a shorter recovery time for the patient and a greater range of motion and dexterity for the surgeon. Dr. Tanneisha Barlow and Dr. Luisa Vera have both completed the additional training necessary for certification and are available for consultation upon request.
For the patient, benefits may include:
  • Reduced blood loss and need for transfusions
  • Less pain and discomfort
  • Less risk of infection
  • Shorter hospital stay
  • Faster recovery and return to normal daily activities
  • Less scarring and improved cosmetics
  • In many cases, better clinical outcomes

Robotic surgeries performed at Rex include:

  • Hysterectomies
  • Myomectomies
  • Treating endometriosis
