Minimally Invasive Surgery

Redefining Traditional Surgery

St. Mary’s is on the forefront of providing the community with minimally invasive surgical techniques and equipment. Minimally invasive surgery relies on laparoscopic technology which uses a small camera-like device to help your surgeon see inside your body with a much smaller incision than is typical with traditional surgery. As a patient, this means you can experience less pain, lessen your incidence of infection, have a shorter hospital stay and recover faster than you would with traditional surgery.

St. Mary’s has three state-of-the-art operating rooms for minimally invasive surgical procedures, including:

  • Angioplasty
  • Appendectomy
  • Arthroscopic joint surgery
  • Carotid artery stenting
  • Laparoscopic hernia repairs
  • Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (Gallbladder removal)
