Robotic surgery
Precision through a few small openings
With robotic-assisted surgery, Dr. Moore operates through several small incisions using a magnified 3D view and wristed instruments that move with more range than the human hand. He controls every movement — the robot does not operate on its own.
For many patients that can mean less pain, smaller scars and a quicker return to normal routines than a traditional open operation.
Not every patient or condition is suited to a robotic approach. Dr. Moore will recommend the safest option for you at your consultation.
Smaller incisions
Typically a few small openings instead of one large cut.
Magnified 3D view
High-definition visualization for precise, careful work.
Often less pain
Less tissue disruption can mean an easier recovery.
Back sooner
Many patients go home the same day or the next.
