This type of surgeries have a special characteristic, they are quick to recover, maintaining an average of one or two days of evolution and patients can return to their homes to carry out their daily activities normally.
“I started my treatment when I began to urinate a reddish tone, the specialists discovered that I had a kidney tumor and scheduled my surgery, then they removed the tumor in its entirety and I returned home two days later. I feel good, I lead my normal life, I visit the doctor constantly and now I have a calm life, I am grateful for this hospital,” said patient Dayana V.
The Ministry of Health continues with the reactivation of services, guaranteeing that patients with surgical needs have access to procedures quickly, efficiently and effectively.
