We were one of the first medical centers in Virginia and in the country to have offered treatment with an advanced robotic surgery system. Carilion Clinic began using the da Vinci® Surgical System in 2001 as part of our mission to deliver the latest, most innovative, cutting-edge technology to our patients.

Using da Vinci®, the surgeon operates the console, which shows a 3-D image of the surgical area. Instrument controls below the display seamlessly translate the surgeon's movements into precise, real-time movements of surgical instruments inside your body.

Carilion offers numerous robotic surgeries using da Vinci® including:

• da Vinci® Cardiac Surgery
• da Vinci® Gynecologic Surgery
• da Vinci® General Surgery
• da Vinci® Urologic and Prostate Cancer

Carilion Women’s Urogynecology specializes in the evaluation and treatment of pelvic floor disorders:

• Urinary incontinence
• Pelvic organ prolapse (uterine prolapse, bladder prolapse, rectocele)
• Overactive bladder
• Recurrent urinary tract infections
• Fecal incontinence
• Bladder pain syndromes (interstitial cystitis)

Our physicians are board certified by the American Board of Obstetrics & Gynecology in female pelvic medicine and reconstructive surgery.

We offer advanced treatment options including:

• Advanced pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation
• Botox therapy for overactive bladder
• Minimally invasive surgery (vaginal, laparoscopic, robotic)

Many women can be treated with physical therapy alone. We are pleased to provide our patients with on-site certified pelvic floor physical therapists.
