Robotic Surgery

Dr. Howard Miller of Urologic Specialists of New England is one of a limited number of surgeons who have completed extensive training and performed numerous cases of robot-assisted surgery for prostate cancer. Compared with traditional surgery, this procedure is less invasive, causing less pain and requiring less recovery time. Studies have shown that it provides better control of the cancer, fewer complications and better results in return of sexual function and urinary control.

Your surgeon uses a sophisticated remote console to precisely control the miniature instruments inserted in the patient's abdomen through tiny incisions, guided by high resolution 3D video. Dr. Miller uses the only robotic surgery system of its kind in Rhode Island, at The Miriam Hospital.

"My Robotic Prostatectomy was a success. Dr. Miller has been very good to me and I owe him a lot."
-- Charles Duffy, Providence
