Banner Good Samaritan offers women minimally invasive alternatives to many gynecologic surgeries, such as hysterectomies, endometriosis, pelvic reconstruction and other procedures through the The Women's Center. Performed on an outpatient basis, this approach allows women to return home within 24 hours. Recovery time is shortened, and is generally complete in about two weeks. Women should check with their physician to learn if minimally invasive surgery is the best choice for them.
