Salem Health is excited to add a new da Vinci 5 robotic surgical system to our operating rooms, supporting surgical volumes and increased demand and advancing our commitment to innovative, high-quality surgical care for our patients. The da Vinci 5 is our third da Vinci robotic surgical system and the sixth in our health system’s robotic fleet, serving patients across a variety of surgical specialties.

Why robots?

Robotic-assisted surgery supports enhanced surgical precision, improved visualization, minimally invasive techniques, reduced postoperative pain, shorter hospital stays and faster recovery for many patients. Our investment in a new da Vinci 5 — one of only five in our state! — continues our goal of giving patients access to advanced surgical technology close to home.

The new da Vinci 5 supports our growing surgical volumes and increased demand for robotic-assisted procedures across multiple specialties, including:

• General surgery
• Urology
• Gynecology
• Colorectal surgery
• Thoracic surgery
• Total Joint Replacement
• And other complex surgical services
  

This expansion reflects our investment in technology and our community, making minimally invasive surgical options easy for patients across the Willamette Valley to access.
