Technological advances in healthcare have given patients a multitude of benefits.  One of the most recent areas of development has been in the area of surgery. What was once a major surgical procedure can now be performed through tiny buttonhole or needlehole sized incisions. 

At the Midwest Institute of Advanced Laparoscopic Surgery, Drs. Glascock and Shah offer patients the choice of minimally invasive (laparoscopic) surgery over traditional (open) surgery. With minimally invasive surgery, the patient experiences many benefits including minimal pain after surgery, a much faster recovery than traditional surgery, drastically reduced hospitalization, less operative stress, a quicker return to regular activity, and a great cosmetic result.
