Descriptions

Mount Sinai School of Medicine continues to lead the nation in volume of minimally invasive procedures across different medical specialties. At Mount Sinai, the variety and complexity of laparoscopic cases - as well as the low percentage of open procedures - yields a wealth of specialized experience.
