A Night and Day Difference

For hysterectomy patient Darla G., having a hysterectomy performed robotically has been "a breeze." According to Darla, "I had traditional surgery five years ago where they used a long incision to remove fibroids. I was in horrible pain from the surgery. This time, using the robotic procedure, it has been a night and day difference. It was a very good experience with minimal pain."

Darla had her hysterectomy performed in October 2008 and was released home the same day as her surgery with minimal restrictions. She hopes to be back to work in appoximately 2-4 weeks versus the six to eight week recovery that is normally associated with a more traditional surgery. According to Darla, "da Vinci surgery is the way to go. I was able to be released the same day as my surgery and sleep in my own bed and pajamas. I felt very comfortable with Dr. Sharpe and the robot."
