Advanced Robotic Surgery: High-Tech Care, Healing Hands
At Baptist Health, we care for the whole person—body, mind, and soul. Part of that care means using the best tools to keep you safe and help you heal.
We are proud to be the first hospital in central Arkansas to use the da Vinci 5. This robotic system helps us perform surgery with greater precision than ever before.
A robot does not do the surgery. Your surgeon does, and Baptist Health is the state’s most trusted health care system.
We use these high-tech tools to help our skilled surgeons work even better. Our goal is to help you heal faster so you can get back to your life and the people you love.
Why Choose Robotic-Assisted Surgery?
It is normal to have questions about “robotic surgery.” This is a type of minimally invasive surgery. That means we can operate through tiny cuts.
By combining the skill of our surgeons with the precision of the da Vinci system, we can offer an experience that is easier on your body.
Benefits often include:
- Faster Recovery: Get back to your normal routine and your family sooner.
- Less Pain: Tiny cuts usually hurt less while they heal.
- Shorter Hospital Stays: Patients go home sooner than with traditional surgery. Many patients can go home the same day.
- Minimal Scarring: Because the cuts are small, scarring is minimal.
- Lower Risk: Reduced risk of infection and complications.
The da Vinci 5: The Future of Healing is Here
Baptist Health is leading the way in Arkansas with the da Vinci 5. This system helps your surgeon “see” and “feel” more than ever before.
- Better Precision: The system turns your surgeon’s hand movements into tiny, perfect movements with better control.
- Feeling the Tissue: New technology lets surgeons "feel" the tissue they are working on, just like they would with their own hands.
- Safety First: Your surgeon is always 100% in control of the robot.
