The Latest Innovations

The system provides surgeons with an alternative to both traditional open surgery and conventional laparoscopy, putting a surgeon's hands at the controls of a state-of-the-art robotic platform. Robotic surgery is available at both of our locations in Mountain View and Los Gatos.
El Camino Hospital also offers the cutting-edge technology of the CyberKnife as part of its new Center for Advanced Radiotherapy and CyberKnife Radiosurgery. The CyberKnife is a radiation therapy device that is able to pinpoint solid tumors anywhere in the body with sub-millimeter accuracy using image-guidance technology.
Pre-Admission Program
Our surgery pre-admission program is designed to assist people who are scheduled for surgery or a medical procedure. The program provides an opportunity for to learn about hospital procedures and ask a registered nurse questions about your hospital stay before you are admitted to the hospital.
The program includes admission information, a review by a financial counselor of your insurance coverage, a review and order of all pre-operative testing by your doctor, as well as a pre-admission packet of information and forms. An assessment of your discharge needs will also be completed.
