Lake Cumberland Regional Hospital Expands Surgical Capabilities with Third da Vinci® Surgical Robot

Lake Cumberland Regional Hospital (LCRH) is expanding its surgical program with the addition of a third da Vinci® Surgical System, increasing access to minimally invasive procedures for patients in the region. This investment reflects LCRH’s ongoing commitment to its patients, community, and highly skilled surgeons.

da Vinci® Surgical System enables surgeons to perform complex procedures with greater precision, flexibility, and control. By offering robot-assisted surgery, LCRH enhances patient experiences with shorter recovery times, reduced surgical risks, and improved overall efficiency.

“We continue to invest in advanced technology, our patients, and our exceptional surgical team to ensure that the highest quality care is available close to home,” said Carolyn Sparks, Lake Cumberland Regional Hospital CEO. “With three da Vinci® robots now in operation, we can better meet the growing demand for minimally invasive procedures and provide even more patients with skilled surgical care.”

The additional robotic system will support a variety of specialties, including general surgery, bariatrics, gynecology, and colorectal surgery. Patients who qualify for robotic-assisted procedures often experience less pain, fewer complications, and a faster return to daily activities compared to traditional surgery.

Lake Cumberland Regional Hospital remains dedicated to advancing healthcare in the community, providing innovative treatment options, and supporting the surgeons and team members who make these procedures possible.
