Minimally invasive surgeries have played a vital role in helping patients heal faster and more smoothly. Montage Medical Group urologists are trained in robotic surgical techniques to make procedures as noninvasive as possible.

“Urology was the first specialty to utilize robotics, then gynecology, and now general surgery. It really has taken a foothold,” says Dr. Harsha Mittakanti, a Montage Medical Group urologist.
