Thinking about that future medical procedure with the same fear as skydiving for the very first time?  Well, the future of surgery has just hit "cutting" (pardon the pun) edge.

Woodland Heights Medical Center recently unveiled its secret weapon in minimizing body invasion, and having it available in East Texas means less trauma, fewer days in the hospital, and a reduction of infection risk.
