St. Joseph’s Health became the first facility in Central New York to acquire da Vinci robotic surgery technology and start a comprehensive program for patient care – not long after the FDA approved da Vinci for general surgery. Surgeons performed 43 robotic surgeries the first (partial) year, nearly quadrupling that number the following year. St. Joseph’s Health has performed more than 14,000 robotic surgeries to date. Patients experience less scarring, shorter hospital stays, faster recoveries, less pain and few infections with da Vinci.
