SURGERY

Susan Sange , Surgery with the daVinci Robot

“I’m so glad that Queen of the Valley had the da Vinci Robot. I would never have been able to get back to my life so quickly without it.” As a mother of two young boys, personal trainer Susan Sange knew she couldn’t afford a lengthy recovery after her surgery. That’s why she chose the da Vinci Robotic-Assisted Surgical System at Queen of the Valley Medical Center. The pinpoint accuracy of the robot and its minimally invasive technique offered her less pain and a faster recovery cycle. Susan's story in her own words (mp3) | Susan's story (PDF)

That made a huge difference in my recovery.”
