A safer, more efficient route for bariatric patients
Dr. Frank Chae is a board-certified surgeon who specializes in bariatric surgery, also known as weight loss surgery. He is currently affiliated with the Denver Center for Weight Loss and Bariatric Surgery, and is located at the HCA HealthONE Sky Ridge in Colorado. Dr. Chae is passionate about using the latest technologies and techniques to help his patients achieve their weight loss goals, and he believes that the DaVinci surgical system is one of the most effective and safe options available.
What is the DaVinci?
The DaVinci surgical system is a robotic surgical platform that allows surgeons to perform minimally invasive procedures with greater precision and control than traditional surgical methods.
Dr. Chae has extensive experience using the DaVinci system to perform bariatric surgeries, such as sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bypass, and adjustable gastric banding. He has performed over 500 robotic bariatric surgeries, yielding great results for his patients.
Why opt for robotic bariatric surgery?
One of the key advantages of the DaVinci system is that it allows surgeons to perform complex procedures with greater ease and efficiency. Some of the benefits of using the DaVinci system include less pain, less scarring, and a faster recovery time for patients. The system also allows for greater precision and control during surgery, which can result in better outcomes and fewer complications. For example, during gastric bypass surgery, the surgeon must create a small pouch at the top of the stomach and then connect it directly to the small intestine. This requires a high degree of precision and can be difficult to do using traditional surgical methods. With the DaVinci system, however, the surgeon can easily manipulate the instruments and create the necessary connections with greater accuracy.
