MountainView and Dr. Kowalski were chosen to take part in this clinical study because of the great track record of MountainView’s surgical robotics program and Dr. Kowalski’s depth of experience and knowledge with robotic and gynecological surgeries. Dr. Kowalski has been performing robotic hysterectomies since 2005 when she did the first case in the state of Nevada.

In addition to its gynecological expertise, MountainView continues to be a leader in all aspects of robotic-assisted surgery. MountainView recently announced that its talented surgical team completed a wedge resection and lobectomy utilizing the da Vinci Si robotic system – a first in southern Nevada. The Las Vegas Institute for Robotic Surgery provides patients with the option of robotic surgery, allowing for more surgical precision and improved care for patients.
