Gallstones are small, hardened deposits that form in the gallbladder - often made of cholesterol or bilirubin. Some people never know they have them. Others feel it fast with sudden pain in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen after eating, nausea, vomiting or bloating that won't go away.

Gallbladder disease can be treated with robotic gallbladder removal, which is a minimally invasive procedure that offers fast relief, smaller incisions, and smoother recovery.

💬 Questions about gallstones or surgery? Give us a call at 907-276-1046 or submit a general inquiry through our website: johnmuffolettosurgery.com

In this clip, Dr. Muffoletto walks us through the docking process — showing how the robotic system positions itself over the patient with precision and flexibility.

✅ Laser alignment for accurate setup
✅ Smooth movement with multiple degrees of freedom
✅ Rotation around the patient for full access (no need to reposition the robot)

This system is designed for complex procedures that demand visibility, control, and minimal disruption to surrounding tissue.
