Re: How Long Does The DaVinci Procedure Take?
Glad I found this post! lol. I never really thought of asking the doctor how long it would take. I guess I figured the four hour estimate I found online was a good number. Now I just need to remember to ask my doctor next time I see him! Not sure that will happen. lol

I can take them up to 90 minutes for the DaVinci procedure to get you positioned on the surgery cart. My surgeon said 4 hours, but I was done in about 2.5 hours. (Just uterus and cervix removed, no other issues that needed repaired)

Re: How Long Does The DaVinci Procedure Take?
Just had my surgery last Monday the 15th and had sacropexy, bladder sling, vaginal wall repair plus hysterectomy and it was 3 hours 45 minutes with no complications. Hope this helps everyone waiting in anticipation to ease your mind a little. I can't believe how good I feel compared to before surgery. I'll be 60 next Saturday and I'm so happy that I have my life back, we'll at least I'm on my way to having my life back. Good luck everyone, I will keep you in my prayers.
Merry

Re: How Long Does The DaVinci Procedure Take?
Hi ladies! Wanted to share a link to a thread here that might give some more info. There are "stories" related to the specific types of surgeries located on the first page hysterectomy support posts... this one is for the DVH. https://www.hystersisters.com/vb2/forumdisplay.php?f=250
Don't forget to take a look at the check points too, they answered soooo many of my pre-op questions. Good luck to those still waiting and speedy (careful) recovery to my recent triumphant sisters!
