Recovery After Robotic Surgery

Recovery After Robotic Surgery

Recovery from robotic surgery is typically faster than open procedures. We outline clear milestones for walking, eating, pain control, and return to work.

Day of surgery

Most patients walk the same day, start light fluids, and go home when safe.

Week one

Focus on light activity, wound care, and pain control with multimodal plans.

Follow-up

We schedule follow-up and remain available through AI-answered phones for quick responses.
