RECOVER FASTER FROM GYN SURGERY

Shorter Recovery Times: Choosing the right surgeon can make all the difference

If you are concerned about how long you will be out of commission after GYN surgery, there are options that can reduce your down time from weeks to days.

Choosing a fellowship-trained laparoscopic GYN like Dr. Paul J Mackoul - Gynecologist is important for fast recovery. These specialists focus solely on minimally invasive procedures. At the Center for Innovative GYN Care, smaller incisions and fewer of them gets patients back on their feet faster. This is especially important for patients who face leave from work without pay. Not every company offers short-term disability insurance, and many who are self-employed can’t risk long recoveries without taking a huge financial risk.

The specialists at The Center for Innovative GYN Care have redefined minimally invasive surgery. Dr. Paul J. MacKoul, MD and Dr. Natalya E. Danilyants, MD at CIGC have developed GYN procedures with 2 or fewer 5 millimeter incisions for all of the surgeries they perform.

See how this compares with other procedures:
CIGC surgeons NEVER perform open or robotic-assisted surgery. Robotic surgery has been proven to increase the risks of complications. Damage to surrounding areas are common with these surgeries, and often require having additional surgeons available to repair nicked bowels or ureters.

Be clear on all of your options. Ask about experience, techniques, the recovery times associated with each procedure and potential complications. As a patient, you have every right to ask for a second opinion, and knowing that you will have less worry as a result of going to an experienced specialist can make all the difference in your recovery.
