Health Care Services: Baptist Collierville
Baptist Memorial Hospital-Collierville is the only health care facility in the Mid-South that offers the da Vinci® SP single-port robotic system, a high-performance surgical tool that enables surgeons to perform complex procedures through a single incision. It offers patients with certain conditions a minimally invasive option for some surgeries, with fewer and smaller scars, reduced down-time, a shortened healing process and fewer complications.
One incision. Precise movements. Faster recovery.
Our highly trained surgeon uses the da Vinci® SP surgical system’s precise instruments and a 3-D, high-definition camera for a clear, magnified view of the surgical area. During a procedure, the surgeon’s hand motions are translated in real time and guided through a console. This technology allows our surgeon to reach a greater anatomical area through a single incision and operate with more precision and control than traditional surgery.
The benefits of a single-port procedure include:
- Smaller incisions and reduced scarring.
- Minimal post-operative pain.
- Fewer post-operative complications.
- Same-day discharge from the hospital, for many patients.
- Shorter hospital stays

Currently, the da Vinci® SP robotic technology has been approved for minimally invasive urology procedures, such as partial or complete removal of the prostate gland or kidney.
As with all surgeries, there can be serious complications and outcomes may depend on several factors, including the patient's health and the characteristics of the disease being treated.
Talk to your doctor about your surgery options and to learn if the da Vinci® SP single-port robotic surgery system is appropriate for you.
