By taking advantage of the latest developments being made in laparoscopic surgery, Dr. Abouezzi can provide patients with safer, less invasive procedures. In contrast to the large open cuts required by conventional surgery methods, laparoscopic surgery is performed with a fiber-optic videoscope and other small instruments inserted through a simple, tiny incision. This results in less pain and a faster recovery time compared to conventional techniques.

While laparoscopic surgery is not needed for every procedure or medical condition, Dr. Abouezzi employs this technique to lessen the impact and pain of surgery whenever it is practical to do so.
