Robotic assisted surgery

"I had been dealing with pain and other symptoms of an umbilical hernia for years. In conjunction with complications from a prior surgery, I found myself needing an umbilical hernia repair surgery. I researched and found General Surgeon, Dr. Castilla, and scheduled my surgery to be performed with robotic assistance — a minimally invasive technique. I had great care at Fawcett Hospital and am thrilled with the outcome of my surgery. Compared to traditional surgery, I experienced only a few small incisions, less pain, a faster recovery and return to daily activities."
