Advanced surgical options in the Shenandoah Valley
Valley Health offers a comprehensive suite of surgical services through
a network of six hospitals and multiple outpatient surgery centers in
Virginia and West Virginia. As advanced, minimally invasive surgical approaches
have continued to evolve, so have we. Our focus is on providing our patients
with the most effective treatment possible while minimizing pain, scarring
and recovery time. Through a variety of innovative minimally invasive
surgical techniques we are able to get our patients up and moving quicker,
with less pain, and restore them to an active lifestyle sooner.
Benefits of minimally invasive surgery:
Less pain
Smaller incisions
Minimal scarring
Faster recovery
Reduced blood loss
Shorter hospital stays (many procedures are performed in an outpatient
setting, so you can go home the day of surgery)
Reduced use of narcotic pain medication
Quicker return to active living
Our skilled surgeons know that the smaller the incision, the faster the
healing process. That’s why we offer minimally invasive surgery,
including robot-assisted surgery, for a variety of conditions and disease
states. Our dedicated surgeons take the time to review every treatment
option with their patients, providing a truly personalized health care
experience, and helping you make the decision that’s right for you.
Areas of Specialty
Robotic Surgery At Winchester Medical Center, we’re using the latest generation surgical
robot, the da Vinci® Xi™, to perform advanced minimally invasive
procedures to treat several types of cancer. Robotic technology augments
our ability to perform highly complex procedures through small incisions.
The advantages of robotic surgery include improved visualization and technical
maneuverability, which can lead to better outcomes for patients, such
as shorter hospital stays and fewer complications.
