About Minimally Invasive Surgery

Garden OB/GYN's skilled surgeons specialize in minimally invasive gynecological procedures using laparoscopic and robotic-assisted techniques. These advanced approaches allow us to treat conditions like fibroids, endometriosis, ovarian cysts, and more through small incisions — resulting in less pain, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.

What to Expect

Minimally invasive procedures are performed through a few small incisions (typically 5-12mm) using a camera and specialized instruments. You'll receive general anesthesia and the surgery is performed at the hospital. Most patients go home the same day or the next morning. Recovery time is significantly shorter than open surgery — most women return to normal activities within 1-2 weeks rather than 6-8 weeks.

Who Is This For?

Women who need surgical treatment for gynecological conditions such as fibroids, endometriosis, ovarian cysts, chronic pelvic pain, or abnormal bleeding, and who are candidates for a less invasive approach.

Frequently Asked Questions

What conditions can be treated with minimally invasive surgery?
Common conditions include fibroids, endometriosis, ovarian cysts, ectopic pregnancy, chronic pelvic pain, and certain cancers. Your provider will determine if you're a candidate.
How long is recovery?
Most women return to light activities within a few days and full activities within 1-2 weeks, compared to 6-8 weeks for open surgery.
Will I have scars?
Incisions are very small (about half an inch) and heal to nearly invisible scars in most cases.
Is minimally invasive surgery as effective as open surgery?
Yes. Studies show equivalent or better outcomes with minimally invasive techniques, along with fewer complications and faster recovery.
