What's New at GVMH - January 2009

» Tonsillectomy Surgery Just Got Easier...
Golden Valley Memorial Healthcare is excited about a new technology, which has recently come to GVMH Surgical Services.  Tonsillectomies can now be gentler with potential for less pain and quicker recovery through Coblation Tonsillectomy.  Unlike traditional tonsillectomy procedures, which remove tonsils by burning, Coblation is an advanced technology that combines gentle radiofrequency energy with natural saline —to quickly, and safely remove tonsils. Coblation does not remove the tonsils by heating or burning, leaving the healthy tissue surrounding the tonsils intact. The innovative approach of Coblation results in minimal pain and rapid recovery for patients.  For more information about the tonsillectomy Coblation, call 660-890-8444.
