Arizona Tribune - Duly Becomes First Ambulatory Surgery Center in Illinois to Offer Da Vinci 5 Surgical Robot

"Some of the best surgical outcomes are the complications patients never experience, made possible by the precision and control that robotic technology brings to modern surgery," said Dr. Gregory Grant, lead physician for surgical services at Duly Health and Care. "Robotic technology allows us to perform more complex procedures through minimally invasive approaches, helping patients avoid open surgery, experience less pain, recover faster, and often return home the same day. The DV 5 is another step forward in delivering the safest, most advanced surgical care possible."

The DV 5 will support a range of procedures, including urologic, gynecologic, and general surgery. The technology remains rare in free standing outpatient settings, where many patients can receive care and return home the same day.

"Our team has helped establish one of the most advanced urologic cancer programs in Illinois, including being the only site in the state to offer outpatient robotic radical prostatectomy with same-day discharge," said Dr. Amit Patel, chair of urology at Duly Health and Care. "The addition of the DV 5 expands our ability to deliver highly specialized cancer care with even greater precision while giving more patients access to leading-edge treatment closer to home."

Duly's Lombard Surgery Center is among a small number of ambulatory surgery centers nationwide to operate two robotic surgical systems.

The addition of the DV 5 marks another milestone in Duly's continued growth as a leader in ambulatory care throughout the Chicago suburbs. As advances in technology make it possible to perform increasingly complex procedures outside the hospital, Duly is investing in the facilities, physicians, and tools needed to deliver specialized surgical care in convenient outpatient settings closer to where patients live and work.

Duly will host a media open house at its Lombard Surgery Center on July 10 at 4:00pm CT, featuring live demonstrations of the DV 5 system and opportunities to speak with surgeons about how robotic-assisted surgery is expanding treatment options for patients across the Chicago region.
