Dr. Dan Gehlbach Offers da Vinci robotic fertility surgery

Many fertility specialists have not progressed to earn board certification as reproductive endocrinologists. Likewise, not every reproductive surgeon has trained and attained certification in the minimally invasive da Vinci Surgery System for robotic fertility surgery.

Known as robotic surgery, the da Vinci technique offers an alternative to traditional “open” surgeries or laparoscopic surgery to treat many medical conditions, including infertility.

Many of Dr. Dan Gehlbach’s patients will resolve infertility with first-line and non-invasive treatments such as ovulation induction. Fertility surgery is sometimes necessary, however, and addresses anatomical issues with the uterus, fallopian tubes or ovaries.
