Surgical Services

From head to toe—and everywhere in between—SIH’s skilled surgeons offer a wide range of surgical procedures, including robotic-assisted, conventional, laparoscopic, and same-day (outpatient) surgeries. We use advanced technology, including three da Vinci robotic-assisted surgical systems at SIH Memorial Hospital of Carbondale and SIH Herrin Hospital, to provide minimally invasive procedures in a wide range of surgical disciplines including general, oncologic, and urologic surgeries.

At SIH, your safety and comfort are our top priorities. We’ll guide you through every step of the process—from reviewing your medical history before surgery to keeping you comfortable during the procedure and supporting your recovery afterward. Our team-based approach ensures you receive personalized, high-quality care designed for your specific needs.

If you have questions about surgery or think you may need a procedure, start by talking to your primary care provider. They can assess your needs and, if necessary, refer you to the right surgical specialist.
