Saratoga Hospital has been accredited as a Center of Excellence for minimally invasive gynecology\u2014the first facility in Northeastern New York to earn this distinction, according to the hospital.
\nIn addition, Drs. Siobhan Hayden and Anouk Lambers of Saratoga Hospital Medical Group \u2013 OB\/GYN, are the first physicians in Northeastern New York to be accredited as Surgeons of Excellence in minimally invasive gynecology.
\nThe accreditations were awarded by the Surgical Review Corp., a nonprofit patient safety organization that recognizes facilities and surgeons for providing superior patient care.
\nHayden and Lambers have more than a decade of experience performing minimally invasive procedures, including robotic surgery, advanced laparoscopy and operative hysteroscopy. Both are skilled in using the da Vinci robotic surgical system to perform procedures to remove the uterus, ovaries and fallopian tubes, and uterine fibroids.
\nMinimally invasive procedures are increasingly preferred because they require smaller incisions and typically result in shorter hospital stays, faster recovery times, reduced pain and fewer complications. Most patients who undergo a minimally invasive gynecologic procedure return home the same day.
\nSaratoga Hospital offers robotic surgery for urologic, gynecologic, thoracic and general surgery procedures. Last year, the hospital invested $2 million to increase access to the most advanced robotic surgery technology. Two of the 10 operating suites in the hospital\u2019s high-tech surgical pavilion are dedicated for robotic surgery.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
