Gynecology - Minimally Invasive Surgery

Dr. Stewart Abbot and Dr. Michael Plotnick are specialists in minimally invasive laparoscopic surgeries. 

Minimally invasive surgeries cause less blood loss and less trauma to tissues.  This allows for a quicker and easier recovery for the patient.  Laparoscopic procedures are done through small incisions 1-2 cm in length.  This means smaller surgical scars and less need for pain medication after surgery.

Laparoscopic supracervical hysterectomy is a new procedure where the uterus is removed but the cervix is left intact.  With this minimally invasive procedure 95% of patients go home within three hours of surgery.  A few patients may require an overnight stay.  Most patients are back to normal activity within one week.

Our clinic continues to strive to be on the leading edge of the medical community.  We try to offer our patients options to fit their needs.  Please feel free to contact us about these procedures and their benefits!
