Robotic Gastrointestinal Surgery

Performed By A Compassionate, Board-Certified Surgeon

Robotic gastrointestinal surgery may be an option for certain individuals who are considering surgical treatment for colorectal cancer, gallbladder disease, hernias or other similar conditions.

Performed with the assistance of a robotic surgery system and miniaturized instruments, robotic procedures allow for an exceptional level of precision. The surgeon remains in full control throughout the entire procedure, yet is able to achieve greater flexibility and range of motion by implementing advanced, robot-assisted technologies.

Robotic gastrointestinal surgery offers several additional benefits over traditional procedures, including:

  • Shorter hospitalization periods and overall recovery times
  • Less pain after surgery
  • Less blood loss during surgery
  • Lower complication rates

At Florida Medical Clinic, Dr. Whalen Clark, MD, FACS practices robotic and minimally invasive surgery, as well as traditional surgery, giving his patients a wide range of options when it comes to gastrointestinal treatment. Because Dr. Clark recognizes that there is no such thing as a “one size fits all” approach to surgery, he tailors each patient’s treatment plan to his or her unique needs.

Additionally, because the decision to undergo any type of surgery – robotic, laparoscopic, or otherwise – is a significant and often life-altering one, Dr. Clark is committed to educating and supporting his patients throughout the process, allowing patients to choose what’s right for their individual needs on their own terms.
