EDINBURG, Texas – DHR Health Women’s Hospital has reached a major milestone, completing over 8,500 robotic-assisted surgeries focused on women’s health.

The surgical team specializes in a range of procedures, including gynecological cancer surgeries, robotic-assisted hysterectomies, pelvic reconstruction, and fertility-sparing surgeries that help preserve the uterus and ovaries.
