The robotic-assisted Head and Neck Surgery Program at AdventHealth Celebration Health is one of the leading programs of its kind in the United States. The program is designed with your experience in mind to keep you as calm and comfortable as possible.

Employing the advanced daVinci® Robotics system, our surgeons use miniaturized instruments and a 3D camera for an unmatched view of the surgical area. Our robotic-assisted surgical techniques are also minimally invasive, which can help reduce pain, scarring and recovery time.

Patients are seen in our specially designed clinic for pre-operative screening and post-operative follow-up care, located close to the head and neck patient area of the hospital. This provides patients and the clinical team easier access to additional care and resources that can aid in your treatment.
