Many gynecologic surgeries that once required large incisions and long recovery periods
can now be performed using minimally invasive techniques. SLUCare minimally invasive
gynecologic surgeons are specially trained and wholly dedicated to this medical sub-specialty.
Using advanced tools, these surgeons perform complex procedures through tiny incisions to
reduce pain, speed recovery and improve cosmetic results.
SLUCare gynecologic surgeons offer state-of-the-art minimally invasive surgery including:
- Traditional laparoscopic surgery
- Operative hysteroscopy
- Robotic surgery
- Single-incision surgery, which is usually visually scarless
With their specialized training and years of experience, our surgeons can often accommodate patients who've been told elsewhere that they are not candidates for these procedures. To request an evaluation, call 314-977-7455.
