Bergen New Bridge Medical Center has acquired the da Vinci 5 Surgical System by Intuitive which will allow for less invasive surgeries while enabling better outcomes. This system provides patients with shorter hospital stays, reduced pain, lower risk of infection, as well as shorter recovery times.

“This is a game changer for the Medical Center, our surgeons, and most importantly, our patients,” said Deborah Visconi, President & CEO, Bergen New Bridge Medical Center. “We are dedicated to being a beacon of health, hope, and healing and now by adding the da Vinci 5, we can help our communities experience the benefits of this revolutionary technology.”

The Medical Center is one of only a few hospitals in the state to offer this leading-edge technology. This system is the pinnacle of surgical innovation, providing patients with less painful, minimally invasive procedures leading to quicker recoveries.

“For our surgical team, this system allows us to better feel the tension and pressure of tissue during procedures which can help us perform safer and more gentle surgeries on our patients,” said Dr. J. Christopher Kollar, Chair of the Surgery Department, Bergen New Bridge Medical Center. “This innovative technology should be available to all patients. I am pleased that the communities we serve will now have access to this robotic surgical system.”
