What to Expect When You Have Robotic Gallbladder Surgery
Dr.Alibhai
At NOVA Bariatrics, we specialize in Cholecystectomy, or robotic gallbladder surgery. Studies show that if you are overweight, you are at a higher risk for developing gall bladder issues. This is because obese people tend to have more cholesterol and bile which can lead to gallstones. Being overweight can also increase the size of your gallbladder which can result in a number of issues impacting your health and well-being.
If you are overweight and have recurrent gallbladder issues, then you might consider robotic gallbladder surgery so you can remove the problem and improve your quality of life. While cholecystectomy may sound intimidating, this procedure is not as complicated as it sounds!
But first the basics:
What is Robotic Gallbladder Surgery
Surgeons use what’s called Da-Vinci technology to remove the gallbladder by making very small incisions. Da-Vinci technology allows surgeons to perform minimally-invasive surgery. This leads to less trauma to the nerves and tissue, less scaring, less pain, and a faster recovery time.
We know this may sound overwhelming, but with the right facility and team, you will be in and out of your procedure in no time at all. NOVA Bariatrics is known in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area for our kind and knowledgeable staff. Our cutting-edge robotic technology delivers the results you want FAST.
At NOVA Bariatrics, we ensure that all patients are comfortable, safe, and supportive throughout their health and weight loss journeys. Surgery of any kind is a big step so there are a few things you should keep in mind before taking your healing journey to the next level.
Why You Should Consider robotic gallbladder surgery?
There comes a time when treatment is no longer effective no matter how much medicine you are prescribed. If this is the case, then surgery may be right for you. Gallbladder surgery has many long-term benefits including less nausea, more energy, and a better immune system.
