Midwest Institute of Advanced Laparoscopic Surgery - Wheaton Franciscan Healthcare

Patients recover faster and experience significantly less pain with minimally invasive surgery than conventional surgery because of the small “button hole” incisions. These button hole incisions replace the larger incision of conventional surgery which can be as large as 12 to 24 inches depending on the type of surgery. As a result of the smaller incisions, patients tend to require less post-surgical pain medication, experience less scaring and a quicker recovery and faster return to normal activities.

The Wheaton Franciscan System is committed to protecting the privacy and confidentiality of patients’ protected health information and has had practices in place for many years to respect patients’ right to privacy. In response to the Health Insurance Portability and AccountabilityAct of 1996 (HIPAA), we are pleased to provide our patients with a Notice of Privacy Practices as they enter our facilities for health care services.
