Most people are candidates for da Vinci® Surgery, but it may not be right for everybody. Only you and your doctor can decide whether da Vinci Surgery is right for you. Before making your decision, you should make sure you are aware of all the options available to you, as well as your physician’s experience as a da Vinci surgeon.
To determine if you are a candidate for da Vinci Surgery, and to ensure you get the information you need from a consultation with your physician, we have put together a brief questionnaire that you can take into your doctor’s appointment with you.
