The urogynecologic services of Sutter Women's services provides care for women suffering from urinary tract problems and voiding difficulties. Advanced diagnostic procedures, including urodynamic studies, allow specialists to pinpoint the cause of voiding problems such as incontinence and determine the best form of treatment.

When medication is not enough, patients have access to minimally invasive surgery techniques including robotic - assisted (da Vinci) surgery, available at Sutter Medical Center, Sacramento, to surgically treat urogynecolgical conditions. The da Vinci is a new, less invasive advanced surgical system that helps your surgeon see vital anatomical structures more clearly and to perform a more precise surgical procedure.

For most patients, the da Vinci assisted surgery offers numerous potential benefits over open surgery including a shorter hospital stay, less pain, less risk of infection, less blood loss and fewer transfusions, less scarring, faster recovery, and quicker return to normal activities.

For more information, see The da Vinci® Surgical System.
