Dr Moore administers Tallahassee's first anesthetic for gynecologic robotic surgery (Da Vinci)

On August 7, 2007, Dr.Mark Moore was part of the team at Tallahassee Memorial that performed the first-ever gynecologic robotic surgery in this five-county North Florida Region. It also marked the first robotic surgery and anesthesia performed on a female patient. The Ob/Gyn surgeons performing the surgery were Dr.Jana Bures-Forsthoefel and Dr.Shawn Ramsey, and surgical assistant Renee Ansley. On August 8, 2007, the team set another first when they performed three robotic surgeries in one day.

Tallahassee Da Vinci
The advantages of robotic surgery and anesthesia include a faster recovery from surgery and significantly lower pain levels. Tallahassee Memorial Hospital in Tallahassee is the only hospital in North Florida within a 2 hour radius that has the highly specialized Robot. Because of its advantages, robotic assisted surgery with the "Davinci Robot" will likely become as commonplace as laparoscopic surgery is today.
