What to Expect in Robotic General Surgery at Chinese General Hospital and Medical Center

At Chinese General Hospital and Medical Center (CGHMC), our Robocare Surgical Center offers patients the benefits of advanced robotic-assisted surgery. This innovative technology allows our surgeons to perform a wide range of procedures with enhanced precision, control, and safety. If you or a loved one are scheduled for robotic surgery, here’s what you can generally expect.

Before Surgery: Careful Preparation

  • Consultation & Evaluation – Your surgeon will discuss your diagnosis, explain the role of robotic surgery in your treatment, and assess your overall health.
  • Preoperative Tests – Routine blood work, imaging studies, and other evaluations will be done to ensure you are fit for surgery.
  • Guidance & Support – Our surgical team and nurses will provide instructions on fasting, medications, and what to bring on the day of your procedure.

During Surgery: Precision Meets Safety

  • Robotic Technology – Robotic surgery does not mean a robot operates on its own. Instead, your highly trained surgeon controls the robotic system from a console, guiding instruments with accuracy that goes beyond the limits of the human hand.
  • Smaller Incisions – Most robotic procedures are minimally invasive, using tiny incisions that reduce trauma to the body.
  • Enhanced Visualization – The robotic system provides a 3D, high-definition view of the surgical area, helping surgeons perform delicate procedures safely.

After Surgery: Faster Recovery, Less Discomfort

  • Reduced Pain – Smaller incisions typically result in less pain after surgery.
  • Shorter Hospital Stay – Many patients are able to go home sooner compared to traditional surgery.
  • Quicker Return to Normal Activities – Recovery is often faster, allowing you to return to work and daily life earlier.
  • Personalized Follow-up Care – Our team will guide you through your recovery, including medications, wound care, and physical activity.
