Dr. Michael McDonald is a Board Certified Urologist practicing robotic surgery at the Celebration Hospital Florida in Celebration, Florida. He is trained in minimally invasive urologic surgery and has dedicated his practice to offering these surgical options to men and woman.

At present he has performed more partial nephrectomy procedure utilizing the da Vinci Robot than any other surgeon in the Greater Orlando area. The other procedures that he performs on the da Vinci Robot are:

• Robotic Partial Nephrectomy
• Robotic Prostatectomy
• Robotic Sacrocolpopexy
• Robotic Adrenalectomy
• Robotic Lymph Node dissection for Testicular Cancer
• Robotic Pyeloplasty

Dr. McDonald feels that the Da Vinci robot has expanded the number of patients that can be offered minimally invasive procedures. He has incorporated robotics in to his surgical practice because of the ability to operate on patients with prior abdominal surgery, complex renal pathology and patients with renal masses. Also, patients who routinely were offered traditional open surgery due to being over weight Dr. McDonald can do the majority of these surgeries in a minimally invasive manner with the robot. His patients are receiving the benefits, with the majority of his patients now going home the next day, and returning to work in two weeks. Since adopting the robotic approach his patients have less bleeding and post operative pain even compared to laparoscopic nephrectomy and partial nephrectomy.

Dr. Michael W. McDonald is a Fellowship trained urologist from the University of California, San Francisco. He is trained in Laparoscopic Minimally Invasive surgery and he also performs urologic robotic surgery on the Da Vinci robot.
