Overview
Piedmont's robotic transplant surgery can allow you to recover more quickly with less pain and a lower risk of infection.
Why Piedmont
Quicker healing
Provide a lifesaving donation
Expert care
Robotic transplant surgery is minimally invasive and allows trained physicians to operate more precisely through small, keyhole incisions. This approach allows surgeons to operate with greater precision and better visualization than traditional laparoscopic surgery. These incisions typically take less time to heal than standard surgical incisions. Donors experience much less post-operative pain with lower chances of infection.

Deciding to donate a kidney to someone is one of the most selfless, lifesaving actions you can take. At Piedmont, our caring, highly trained transplant team is dedicated to providing safe, minimally invasive donor nephrectomies. This approach allows donors to heal as quickly as possible.
