Surgical oncology
Modern oncologic surgery using robotic, minimally invasive, and conventional techniques – always tailored to your needs.
What robotic surgery is
Robotic surgery is an advanced, minimally invasive approach that allows surgeons to perform complex procedures with greater accuracy, control, and flexibility than traditional techniques. Using a robotic-assisted platform, the surgeon operates from a dedicated console, viewing the surgical field in high-definition 3D and guiding a set of highly precise, wristed instruments.
This technology does not replace the surgeon — it enhances their capabilities. Every movement is fully controlled by the surgeon and translated into refined, tremor-free micro-movements inside the body. This enables delicate operations through very small incisions, reducing trauma to surrounding tissues and supporting faster recovery, less pain, and fewer complications.
Robotic surgery is used across many specialties, offering patients a safer, more precise alternative without compromising surgical effectiveness. It delivers the benefits of modern medicine with a strong focus on comfort, safety, and long-term outcomes.
Benefits
How long does a consultation take?
Consultations typically last between 30 and 45 minutes. This allows time for a full evaluation, review of imaging or tests, and discussion of treatment options.
Can I have a remote consultation?
Yes. Remote consultations are available for initial evaluations, second opinions, and follow-up discussions. Certain steps, such as physical examinations or procedures, require in-person visits.
What types of conditions do you treat?
I treat a wide range of cancers, including breast, abdominal, gynecologic, endocrine, soft tissue, skin, and head and neck tumors. I also perform general and minimally invasive procedures for common surgical conditions.
When is robotic surgery recommended?
Robotic surgery may be recommended when enhanced precision, better visualization, or smaller incisions can lead to safer procedures and faster recovery. Not all cases require robotics, and each treatment plan is individualized.
What should I bring to my first appointment?
If possible, bring recent imaging results, pathology reports, medical history, and a list of current medications. This information helps ensure an accurate and complete evaluation.
What is the approximate cost of treatment?
Costs vary depending on the procedure, hospital, and required studies. During your consultation, you will receive a clear explanation of anticipated costs and any available options.
Conditions treated with robotics
Colorectal cancer
Endometrial cancer
Selected gynecologic cancers
Gastric cancer
Thyroid tumors
Head and neck tumors
Hernia repair
Gallbladder disease
How it works
1. The surgeon sits at a console with a 3D viewer.
From the console, the surgeon views the surgical area in highly magnified, high-definition 3D. This enhanced visibility allows for exceptional precision, especially when working with delicate structures.
2. The robotic system translates hand movements into precise micro-movements.
From the console, the surgeon views the surgical area in highly magnified, high-definition 3D. This enhanced visibility allows for exceptional precision, especially when working with delicate structures.
3. The instruments offer greater reach and flexibility.
The robotic instruments can rotate and bend beyond the natural range of the human wrist. This flexibility provides improved access through tiny incisions and allows safer, more controlled navigation around critical tissues.
4. All actions are entirely controlled by the surgeon.
The robotic system never operates autonomously. Every movement, adjustment, and decision is fully directed by the surgeon in real time, ensuring complete control and patient safety throughout the entire procedure.
