Laparoscopic Surgery

Smaller incision, faster recovery.

Laparoscopic surgery – also known as minimally invasive surgery – is one of the most notable advancements in modern surgical technology. Many different types of surgery can be performed laparoscopically, helping you recover faster and with less pain than usually follows traditional surgery. At Florida Medical Clinic, we perform minimally invasive surgery whenever possible, providing you with a number of potential advantages over traditional operations.

Florida Medical Clinic’s Department of Surgery offers laparoscopic versions of the following procedures:

Discectomies, laminectomies, and other spine surgeries
Ear, Nose & Throat procedures
Gallbladder surgeries or gallstone removal surgeries (cholecystectomies)
Hysterectomies and other gynecological procedures
Hernia surgeries
Kidney surgeries
Knee, hip, and elbow replacements
Thoracic surgeries
Tumor resections

Laparoscopic surgery offers an array of benefits over traditional open surgery, including:

Less scarring
Lower risk of infection
Less blood loss
Shorter hospital stay

While the benefits of laparoscopic surgery are clear, not every individual is an ideal candidate for minimally invasive surgery. Our surgeons may recommend a conventional operation when it is truly the most promising option.
