Surgical Services
When you need surgery, it can be a stressful and emotional time for you and your loved ones. At Merit Health Woman's Hospital, we provide surgical care, advanced technology and knowledgeable and experienced surgeons.
We offer a range of surgical services in almost every medical specialty - everything from general surgery to treat colorectal cancer, gastroesophageal reflux and hernias, to minimally invasive and robotic-assisted surgical options.
Skilled teams work closely with patients, families and their primary care doctors to answer questions and address concerns. At Merit Health Woman's Hospital, the focus is on patient safety, care and comfort.
Minimally Invasive Options
The surgeons at Merit Health Woman's Hospital perform minimally invasive procedures when possible. By using miniature cameras with microscopes, tiny fiber-optic flashlights and high-definition monitors, surgeons can perform surgery through small incisions that take only a few stitches to close. Minimally invasive procedures may result in less blood loss, less pain and a quicker recovery. We offer
- Arthroscopic surgery
- Endovascular techniques (catheter-guided procedures)
- Laparoscopic surgery
- Laser surgery
- Robotic surgery
