Advanced Technology and Amazing Outcomes

You only want the best for your child, and so do we. Our goal is always to treat their condition in the most effective and least invasive way possible — with gentle compassion for their experience. In addition to expert urologists and surgeons, your care team includes Child Life Specialists and Health Navigators who can support your family physically, mentally and emotionally through the process.

AdventHealth for Children has a nationally recognized surgical program that is a world leader in minimally invasive surgery for children and adolescents. We offer pediatric urology and gynecology care across Central and West Florida, with robotic surgeries performed at our Orlando campus. Our teams use technological advancements in procedures so children can have more precise surgeries and recover faster with less risk of complications.

National Leaders in Robotic Urologic Surgery

AdventHealth for Children is one of the few children's hospitals in the country to offer robotic surgery for pediatric urologic conditions. Our experienced team can perform several procedures robotically, an advancement that can help your child recover more quickly with less pain and risk of complications than traditional surgery. The use of a robotic surgical platform like the da Vinci Surgical System gives surgeons even more precision, plus the ability to use smaller incisions and fewer stitches. Meaning your child can go home sooner — and feel better faster. Watch the video below to learn more about robotic surgery.
