Surgery in Las Vegas, Nevada

If you or a loved one need surgical services, you can count on Summerlin Hospital. No matter what type of surgery you require, we can put you at ease.

General surgeons diagnose and treat patients with a range of diseases and conditions. They have broad knowledge of surgical critical care, cancer surgery and trauma.

At Summerlin Hospital we provide skilled staff and advanced tools and methods for inpatient and outpatient surgery. We offer 12 surgery suites, a recovery room, an endoscopy center and more. Our staff supports you every step of the way, from diagnosis and treatment to managing your health after surgery. Surgeons provide care before surgery to help choose what type of procedure is right for you.

Minimally Invasive Surgery

Smaller incisions can have big benefits. We offer minimally invasive procedures, such as laparoscopic and endoscopic surgery.

Minimally invasive surgery may lead to faster healing and less scarring. This is because surgeons make small incisions. The advanced video equipment gives surgeons a clearer view of the surgical area. Instruments are used to perform the surgery through the incisions.

Robotic Surgery Center

Surgeons at Summerlin Hospital use the robotic-assisted da Vinci® Surgical System. The surgeon is in complete control. The system allows doctors to perform complex procedures using smaller incisions than standard surgery. Tiny robotic tools are inserted through the small incisions.

Patients may experience benefits including:

• Less pain
• Less blood loss
• Lower risk of infection
• Shorter recovery times
• Quicker return to work and normal activities
• Reduced scarring

Our robotic-assisted surgery options include:

• Colorectal surgery
• Gallbladder surgery
• Gynecologic surgery
• Kidney surgery
• Prostate Surgery

Services

We offer both elective and emergency surgeries. Common procedures include hernia repair, surgery to remove urinary blockages and gallbladder removal. We also offer urology surgery for children.

In addition to general surgery, we provide these surgical services:

Advanced Prostate Cancer Treatment

We offer high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) technology for prostate cancer patients. With this minimally invasive treatment, soundwaves target cancer cells and destroy them.

No radiation is needed and it is a one-time, outpatient surgery. Patients may have fewer side effects than with traditional cancer surgery and treatments. Summerlin Hospital was the first in Nevada to offer this treatment.

* Individual results may vary. There are risks associated with any surgical procedure. Talk with your doctor about these risks to find out if minimally invasive or robotic surgery is right for you.
