Advanced Robotic Surgery Tailored to Your Needs
Every patient is different, and every operation deserves the most appropriate surgical approach. As one of the few surgeons in the UK offering Single-Port Robotic Surgery, Dr. Sasindran Ramar provides advanced minimally invasive treatment options designed to reduce scarring, support faster recovery, and deliver excellent surgical outcomes.
Overview
Two Advanced Robotic Approaches. One Goal: Better Patient Outcomes.
Robotic surgery allows surgeons to perform complex procedures with exceptional precision, flexibility, and control. Depending on your condition, Dr. Sasindran may recommend either a Single-Port or Multi-Port approach. Both techniques offer the benefits of minimally invasive surgery, but they differ in how the robotic instruments access the surgical area.
Category A
Single-Port Robotic Surgery
One Incision. Less Scarring. Faster Recovery.
Single-Port Robotic Surgery is an innovative technique that allows the entire procedure to be performed through a single small incision, typically hidden within or around the belly button. This approach can significantly reduce visible scarring while maintaining the precision and benefits of robotic-assisted surgery.
Key Benefits
- Single hidden incision — minimal visible scarring
- Reduced tissue trauma and postoperative discomfort
- Faster return to normal activities
- Excellent cosmetic outcomes
- Full robotic precision maintained throughout
Single-Port Robotic Gallbladder Surgery
For patients requiring gallbladder removal, a single-incision approach delivers excellent outcomes with minimal visible scarring.
Ideal for: Gallstones · Gallbladder inflammation · Gallbladder dysfunction · Recurrent gallbladder attacks
Single-Port Robotic Hernia Surgery
Selected hernia repairs performed through a single incision using advanced robotic technology, offering exceptional cosmetic results.
Suitable for: Inguinal hernias · Selected abdominal wall hernias · Recurrent hernias in suitable patients
Patient Experience
The Scar Speaks for Itself
For many patients, the most noticeable difference is what they don’t see after surgery. By performing surgery through a single concealed incision, visible scarring can be dramatically reduced compared to traditional surgical techniques. Combined with robotic precision, this approach offers a unique balance of advanced technology, patient comfort, and cosmetic benefits.
Category B
Multi-Port Robotic Surgery
Advanced Robotic Surgery for More Complex Procedures
While Single-Port Surgery offers significant advantages for selected patients, some operations require multiple access points to achieve the safest and most effective outcome. Multi-Port Robotic Surgery uses several small incisions through which robotic instruments and a high-definition camera are inserted. This remains one of the most advanced and effective forms of minimally invasive surgery available today.
Benefits of Multi-Port Robotic Surgery
- Single hidden incision — minimal visible scarring
- Reduced tissue trauma and postoperative discomfort
- Faster return to normal activities
- Excellent cosmetic outcomes
- Full robotic precision maintained throughout
Robotic Bariatric Surgery
Advanced robotic-assisted weight loss surgery for patients seeking long-term solutions to obesity and related health conditions.
Complex Robotic General Surgery
For more technically demanding procedures, a multi-port robotic approach provides the safest and most effective surgical solution with superior visualisation.
Robotic Hernia & Abdominal Wall Reconstruction
Complex hernia repairs benefit from the flexibility and enhanced visualisation provided by multi-port robotic surgery.
At a Glance
Single-Port vs Multi-Port: Which Is Right for You?
| Feature | Single-Port Surgery | Multi-Port Surgery |
|---|---|---|
| Number of Incisions | One | Multiple Small Incisions |
| Cosmetic Outcome | Excellent | Very Good |
| Suitable for Selected Procedures | ✓ | ✓ |
| Suitable for Complex Cases | Limited | Excellent |
| Robotic Precision | ✓ | ✓ |
| Minimally Invasive | ✓ | ✓ |
The best approach depends on your individual condition, anatomy, and surgical requirements. During your consultation, Dr. Sasindran will assess your case and recommend the technique that offers the safest and most effective outcome.
Our Philosophy
Surgery Designed Around You
Not every patient is a candidate for Single-Port Robotic Surgery, and not every procedure requires a Multi-Port approach. Dr. Sasindran’s philosophy is simple:
“Choose the least invasive approach possible while delivering the best surgical result.”
By offering both Single-Port and Multi-Port robotic techniques, patients receive a personalised treatment plan based on their unique needs rather than a one-size- fits-all solution.
Real Patients. Real Stories
Our patients consistently praise the compassionate care and expert treatment they receive.
