Minimally invasive surgery is quickly becoming the preferred method for treating many of the gynecologic problems women experience that require surgical intervention. These procedures can result in less post-operative pain and shorter recovery times for patients.
“Minimally invasive surgery has many benefits compared to traditional procedures,” said Keshma Saujani, M.D., an OB/GYN with the Center for Women’s Health at The Longstreet Clinic. “We are are able to use smaller incisions, and the patients experience less pain after surgery, have less scar tissue formation and usually can return to work sooner.”
The Center for Women’s Health at The Longstreet Clinic, P.C. includes experts in the field of minimally invasive surgery, including laparoscopic and robotic procedures.
The goal is to treat a wide range of gynecologic problems while improving the quality of life for patients.
Laparoscopic and/or robotic surgeries can be used for the following:
- Endometriosis
- Ovarian cysts
- Ectopic pregnancy
- Hysterectomy
- Fibroids
- Sterilization
- Other pelvic problems
Many in-office procedures also are available. Offices are conveniently located in Gainesville, Braselton, Dahlonega and Baldwin.
