Better Surgical Outcomes For You. 

What you get when you choose to have da Vinci Robotic Surgery at St. Joseph's/Candler is more than 17 years of experience, highly trained surgeons and the most certified robotic OR team anywhere in southeast Georgia or South Carolina Low Country. 

That means you are safer. That means you get home faster. And that means you will quickly be back to your life. 

St. Joseph's/Candler has been expanding our da Vinci robotic surgery teams since 2007 and we now have six robots in three different locations used by surgeons from a wide variety of specialties plus 80 of the most experienced and certified nurses and OR techs in the region. 

Simply put, we are southeast Georgia's leader in da Vinci robotic surgery. 

The da Vinci Surgical System uses sophisticated computer aided equipment to replicate the surgeons movements precisely while filtering out the surgeons pulse, called tremor. It also has highly magnified views of the patient that allows the surgeon to see structures and problem tissues that might not otherwise be seen.

What does this mean to you as a patient?

  • Less pain
  • Less blood loss and potential for transfusions
  • Shorter hospital stay
  • Quicker recovery and return to your normal daily activities
