Robotic surgery is a minimally invasive surgery offered at Manhattan Orthopedics by Dr. Dushey and Dr. Varma. It uses robotics harms and tiny instruments to complete the procedure, along with a high-definition camera providing magnified, enhanced 3D views of the surgical area.
Your surgeon guides the robotic arms using an innovative console to ensure optimal accuracy and precision.
Dr. Dushey completes joint replacement surgeries, while Dr. Varma focuses on robotic-assisted spine surgeries.
The perks you can expect when choosing robotic surgery at Manhattan Orthopedics include:
Robotic surgery is minimally invasive, so the downtime required is less than traditional open surgeries. Robotic-assisted surgeries have overall success rates of 94-100%.
Manhattan Orthopedics offers robotics surgeries to treat the following conditions:
Your specialist may first suggest you try conservative treatments, such as medications, physical therapy, or injections. However, they offer robotic surgery if other options haven’t provided relief or your injury is severe.
You receive anesthesia before the procedure to help you fall asleep or eliminate discomfort. Dr. Dushey or Dr. Varma makes several small incisions and inserts specialized surgical equipment, including robotic arms and a tiny camera, to complete the procedure.
Afterward, they close the incisions, and the Manhattan Orthopedics experts monitor you in a recovery area.
You might be able to go home the same day as surgery or the next day. Follow your post-surgery instructions to ensure optimal results.
Ice the affected area, complete physical therapy, and take any medications as directed. Eat nutritious foods, get plenty of rest, and avoid intense activity until you’ve healed. Complete healing may take several weeks or months.
