ETP Red River Valley Today with Guest Paris Regional Medical Center Surgeon Andrew Fraser, General Surgery and Robotics

ETP Red River Valley Today with Guest Paris Regional Medical Center Surgeon Andrew Fraser, General Surgery and Robotics - Eric and Dr. Fraser talk about Robotic-assisted surgery – on our new da Vinci Xi robot – different types of procedures he performs with the robot, advantages of having robotic-assisted surgery. We get an update on the name the robot competition going on with area schools. 

They cover cancer screenings (colon, breast biopsies) – and go more in to detail on colonoscopies, benefits, results of catching things sooner rather than later.

They also discuss role in trauma that comes in from the ER. A huge benefit of the PRMC ER is that they have an entire hospital attached with 24/7 on-call specialties – including general surgery. If you come in to the hospital from an accident and need surgery, they have general surgeons and other specialty surgeons that can handle that on-site or, if a higher level of care is needed, we can get you transferred out.
