“Our experience with Dr Ryan was great from the very beginning. The day of surgery he made my family rest assured I would be in good hands…he gave updates throughout the surgery to my family and upon completing it, came out and explained everything he did during the surgery. DR RYAN really gives his upmost attention to his patients and detail in his work as a surgeon. I would highly recommend him a as a surgeon and I’m thankful he was with me and my family during my duration with colon cancer.”

He made sure that my family and I completely understood the surgery beforehand and made me feel very comfortable and confident throughout the entire process.

Active Lifestlye

Enduring pain or discomfort to avoid impeding your everday activities? If you’re due for a surgery but you love to eat, or you’re afraid to lose momentum in your active lifestyle, our robotic surgery makes it easier to get back into your routine. On average, you’ll be back 2-3 days after a Gallbladder surgery, or 3 to 5 days after hernia surgery. Get rid of that recurring pain without sacrificing your lifestyle.

PROFESSIONALS

If your ability to work is disrupted by your surgical condition, but you can’t afford an extended leave of absence, you’ll need the surgery that will allow you to get back to your feet in just a matter of days. Most of our surgeries take 3 to 7 days of recovery without pain. You can also opt for Robotic Surgery, which could make recovery even faster, depending on your condition.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long will it take for me to be scheduled for surgery?
Availability varies with seasons. We are a very busy surgical practice, but we always find a way to schedule surgery in accordance with our patients’ social and professional parameters.
How long will I be out of work?

Types of surgery and employment affect this time. With minimally invasive surgery, we are able to facilitate return to work in 1-2 weeks for minor surgeries and 2-3 weeks for major surgeries. For current statistics, please refer to robot outcome data.

When can I start driving again?

If you are not taking narcotic pain medication and are comfortable, you may drive. Please see current robot outcome data.

After I leave the hospital how long do I have to keep my bandages on?

Typically, patients can shower immediately after surgery. By convention, we ask that you do not soak or submerge the incisions for two weeks. But showers are okay. The typical bandage is an adhesive sealant that falls off in about 2 weeks.

If I need paperwork filled out, when should I drop it off and how long will it take to get back?

We employ dedicated staff to ensure quick responses to your professional needs. Return time may vary and there is a small fee, but forms are usually returned within 7-10 days.

Will I get my pain meds sent to my pharmacy before I have surgery?

Although exceptions can be made, pain medication is usually electronically transmitted to your pharmacy immediately after completion of the surgical procedure.
