• Tumors and other malignancies in the lungs, breast, colon and rectum, skin, stomach and thyroid

If you have inpatient surgery, you’ll stay at the hospital for at least one night to make sure you get the right postoperative care. If you have outpatient surgery, you can go home the same day you have surgery. Whether you’re a candidate for outpatient surgery depends on several factors, like how complicated the surgery is.

Minimally invasive surgery can lead to shorter recovery time, less pain and scarring and faster return to your daily activities. Our team of specially trained robotic surgeons performs minimally invasive operations with advanced technology.

On the day of your surgery, you should expect to:

• Bring your photo ID, insurance card and payment
• Fill out any forms
• Receive your hospital ID bracelets
• Get your vitals taken 
• Provide a urine specimen (if you’re a female who can have children)
• Leave your belongings with the staff or your support person 
• Change into a hospital gown and slippers 
• Get your IV placed and have your surgical site marked
