Robotic surgery in San Antonio

Our surgeons use robot-assisted technology to perform the most advanced procedures. This allows our surgeons to make small incisions in order to insert robotic arms and perform the procedure with the maximum amount of precision. The magnified, 3D view allows the surgeon to perform complex procedures including prostate, open-heart and urological surgeries.

In addition, our orthopedic team has become one of San Antonio’s leading providers of knee replacements using this minimally invasive, computer-assisted technology.
