Robotic Surgery
Palms West Hospital has two da Vinci® Si Surgical Systems. Our surgeons perform robotic surgery for gynecology, urological and general surgery. Robotic surgery is an effective, minimally invasive alternative to both open surgery and laparoscopy. Compared to more traditional procedures, robotic-assisted surgery results in reduced recovery times, less risk of infection, less blood loss and reduced trauma to the body.
Cardiology
As an Accredited Chest Pain Center, Palms West Hospital ensures that patients who come to the hospital complaining of chest pain or discomfort are given the immediate treatment necessary to avoid as much heart damage as possible.
Obstetrics
"Your New Life Center" believes in promoting positive family bonds by offering family-centered maternity care. This department is focused on providing the mother, baby and family with a safe and memorable birthing experience. From our experienced, caring doctors and nurses to the most advanced technology, we deliver an unparalleled level of comfort. We also offer a number of childbirth classes for our expectant moms, siblings and the entire family.
Orthopedics
Dedication and skill is exemplified by our highly trained surgeons, experts in the treatment of every bone and joint in the human body. The Orthopedic Center utilizes less invasive joint replacement techniques using stronger, more durable materials. We provide pre-operative education classes to address any questions or concerns about the surgical process and recovery.
The Future:
This is an exciting year for Palms West Hospital. Construction is well underway for a 32-bed expansion project, which will bring us to 204 total beds. We are excited about this expansion and look forward to the benefits it will bring to our patients and the communities we serve for many years to come.
