Then, in consultation with Jaime Rivera, M.D., co-director of the NSMC Weight Management Program, Calderas opted for gastric-sleeve surgery.

  • Minimally Invasive, Maximally Beneficial | Salem Hospital | Mass General Brigham
  • Second surgical robot expands Salem Hospital's one-of-a-kind robotic surgery program. Since Salem Hospital acquired its first robotic surgical system in 2018, the hospital's clinicians have transformed the surgical expertise available on the North Shore, so much so that demand for the minimally invasive surgeries offered in this one-of-a-kind regional program far outpaced capacity. What sets robotic surgery apart from traditional surgery, or even laparoscopic surgery, is that the wristed instrument on the robot provides the surgeon with greater flexibility and range of movement in the surgical field. Our goal is to provide the same outstanding care that is delivered at our two Boston academic medical centers, but closer to home. We sincerely thank all the supporters of our surgical robotics program, with special appreciation to our lead donors including:
