Robotic Surgeon

Dr. Anthony Pozzessere can: Perform many types of complex procedures with more precision, flexibility and control than is possible with conventional techniques. Better see the surgical site as compared with traditional techniques. Use robotic surgery to perform delicate and complex procedures that may have been difficult or impossible with other methods

Robotic surgery procedures allow doctors to carry out a significant number of complex procedures with more control, flexibility, and precision compared to traditional surgery. Recovery from this type of surgery is faster, and the patient experiences less pain and discomfort. The most popular robotic surgical system consists of a camera arm and either two or three mechanical arms with surgical instruments attached to them. The robot-assisted surgeon is in constant control of these arms, while seated near the operating table at a computer console. This console provides the top-rated robotic surgeon with a 3D magnified view of the surgical site. Some of the top robotic surgeons also employ other team members who may be assisting during the entire operation.

Anti-reflux Surgery & Hiatal Hernia

Many people suffer from chronic heartburn and acid reflux, known as Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), requiring long-term use of anti-acid medications.

Gallbladder Surgery

Surgery for diseases of the gallbladder is one of the most commonly performed procedures in general surgery. Gallstones can develop within the gallbladder, leading to pain, nausea, and other abdominal symptoms. In many cases, removal of the gallbladder provides lasting relief.

Hernia Surgery

Hernias occur in regions of the abdominal wall where there is a defect in the muscle layer, allowing contents inside the abdomen to bulge out, or β€œherniate.” Common locations for hernias include the groins, umbilicus, and at old incisions from prior surgeries.

Pancreas Surgery

The pancreas is an organ that serves multiple functions, including the release of endocrine hormones and digestive enzymes. Abnormal growths in the pancreas often require surgery. Occasionally, complications from pancreatitis require surgical management as well.

Stomach Surgery

Diseases of the stomach include a variety of conditions, including ulcers, tumors, obstructions, and dysfunction. Some conditions are benign, others malignant. In most cases, minimally invasive robotic surgery can be performed to treat your disease.
