Dr. Raman Singla Director Radiance Multispeciality hospital said that both robotic surgery and traditional surgery have their own sets of advantages and limitations.Keep in mind that what was once seen as cutting-edge can become traditional over time. Medicine, like all fields, continuously evolves, and robotic surgery represents a significant step forward in this progress.
Factors to consider include:
The complexity of the procedure: Some surgeries may benefit more from robotic assistance, while others may be equally effective with traditional methods.
Patient health and preferences: Individual health conditions and personal preferences can influence the choice.
Surgeon experience and facility capabilities: The surgeon’s expertise and robotic technology at the hospital are crucial factors.
This blog addresses common patient questions that often arise in Chandigarh Mohali and nearby areas: “What is robotic surgery?”, “How does it compare with laparoscopy?”, “How much will it cost in Mohali or Punjab?”, and crucially, “Is robotic surgery worth the extra cost?” We discuss typical procedures offered locally (e.g., hysterectomy, prostatectomy, cholecystectomy, hernia repair), review evidence on outcomes and complications, provide a cost comparison framework, and outline practical steps patients can take when choosing a modality and centre.
At Radiance Hospital as a local center where patients can discuss both laparoscopic and robotic options with specialists.
