Gynecologic conditions like endometriosis and uterine fibroids can cause pain and discomfort and impact your quality of life. Though they’re difficult to deal with, minimally invasive surgery makes treatment simple and is the preferred option for most gynecologic surgeries, including hysterectomies and myomectomies (fibroid removal). 

At Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery Hanestown, located in Winston-Salem, our fellowship-trained gynecologic surgeons offer the latest, most effective surgical techniques, including treatments for large fibroids and advanced endometriosis. We’re committed to getting to the root of your concerns, improving your quality of life and working together to develop a treatment plan that’s best for you. 

Benefits of Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery

Unlike open surgery, which requires one long incision, minimally invasive surgery is performed through tiny incisions laparoscopically or with the use of a robotic surgical system. By taking a less-is-more approach, minimally invasive surgery is preferred for most gynecologic conditions, with benefits that include:

  • Smaller incisions
  • Fewer complications
  • Less pain
  • Shorter hospital stays
  • Faster recovery and return to daily activities
  • Reduced scar tissue
  • Less risk of infection or other complications
