Lancaster County has options for surgery at LRMC!

LRMC has exclusively offerred the state-of-the-art 3DHD daVinci Surgical System since 2005. It allows our talented surgeons and skilled operating team to perform precise, minimally invasive surgery in a manner that enhances healing and promotes well-being.

This generation of computer enhanced technology is a boon to men with prostate cancer and women undergoing hysterectomy or myomectomy. Minimally invasive surgery allows physicians to perform many kinds of major surgery with less patient trauma and pain, minimal scarring, faster recovery and shorter hospital stays. These surgeries are performed through smaller incisions that cause less trauma and lessen needed healing time.

The da Vinci Surgical System is powered by state-of-the-art robotic technology. The system allows our surgeon’s hand movements to be scaled, filtered and translated into precise movements of micro-instruments within the operative site. The magnified, three-dimensional view the surgeon experiences enables him to perform precise surgery in complex procedures through small surgical incisions. By integrating computer-enhanced technology with the surgeon’s skill, the robotic-assisted surgical technology enables surgeons to take minimally invasive surgery to new heights. The da Vinci System enhances surgical capabilities by enabling the performance of complex surgeries through tiny surgical openings. The System cannot be programmed nor can it make decisions on its own. The da Vinci System requires that every surgical mauveuver be performed with direct input from your surgeon.

The da Vinci system combines the skills of select surgeons including Paul Russinko, M.D., Christopher Woodard, M.D., of Urological Associates of Lancaster, David Svetec, M.D. and Mark Jarowenko, M.D. of Lancaster Urological Group and Thomas Fromuth, M.D. of OB/GYN of Lancaster.
