Philosophy:
Dr. Eric M. Haas is recognized as an expert in the specialty of minimally invasive laparoscopic colon and rectal surgery. He has performed over 1,000 cases, making him one of the highest volume surgeons in the world. Dr. Haas is actively involved in the promotion of modern and innovative techniques to enhance patient safety and recovery through research and clinical trials. He serves as a preceptor to train and educate surgeons, fellows and residents to help them gain competency with these techniques and skills.
During minimally invasive surgery, a high magnification camera and specialized surgical instruments allow the surgery to be completed through small incisions. All the major maneuvers previously done through open surgery with a large scar across the belly are performed through tiny dime-sized incisions. Surgical trauma is greatly reduced and the scar is minimized with this advanced technique, so patients have significantly less pain and a quicker return to normal activity.
