The nursing team consists of a nurse manager, registered nurses and certified nursing assistants caring for patients at all times. Many of our physicians are nationally and internationally recognized for their expertise.

    A Regional Resource For Ob-Gyn Surgical Services 

    Our surgeons are specialists in minimally invasive procedures, including laparoscopic, vaginal and the state-of-the-art daVinci robotic surgery.

    The technology and techniques available to our patients are designed to avoid surgery requiring large incisions. For our patients, this means less scarring, less pain and a shorter recovery time.
