Dr. Lambrou on Robotic Surgery

"We are proud to offer robotic surgery to our patients using the latest tools available. Robotic surgery allows for quicker recovery, and many patients are able to go home the same day or the next day from surgery. This means less time in the hospital and more time at home with family, so you can feel ‘back to normal,’ sooner," says Dr. Lambrou, Medical Director of Robotic Surgery at Luminis Health.

What to Expect with Robotic Surgery 

Patients undergoing robotic surgery should be prepared for the following:

  • Comprehensive Care Team: Your surgical team includes not only your surgeon but also nurses, anesthesiologists, nutritionists, and social workers, all dedicated to guiding you through the surgical process and addressing any concerns.
  • Preoperative Evaluations: To determine surgical readiness, patients may undergo diagnostic tests such as imaging scans and blood work.
  • Postoperative Recovery: Although robotic surgery is minimally invasive, general anesthesia is still required. Patients are encouraged to begin moving as soon as possible after surgery, with some eligible for same-day discharge. 

Dr. Belyansky is widely recognized as an international expert in robotic surgery for abdominal wall reconstruction and complex hernia repair. He receives referrals from across the country, particularly for complex cases. Visiting surgeons regularly come to observe Dr. Belyansky and his team to learn from their technique. Dr. Belyansky is committed to providing compassionate, expert care, and he works closely with patients to ensure the best outcomes through cutting-edge robotic technology.
