GENERAL INFORMATION
Many surgical procedures that once required large incisions and long hospital stays are now performed through minimally invasive techniques that require only small incisions. Minimally invasive surgery (or laparoscopic surgery) offers patients many benefits which include minimal pain after surgery, faster recovery, shorter hospital stays and superior cosmetic results. Dr. Bonheur has extensive experience performing laparoscopic surgery including weight loss surgery, gallbladder surgery, colon and intestinal resections, appendectomy, gastric reflux surgery, hernia repairs and much more.
