We are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience. To do so, we are actively working with consultants to update the website by increasing its accessibility and usability by persons who use assistive technologies
such as automated tools, keyboard-only navigation, and screen readers.
We are working to have the website conform to the relevant standards of the Section 508 Web Accessibility Standards developed by the United States Access Board, as
well as the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1. These standards and guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities. We believe that conformance with these standards and
guidelines will help make the website more user friendly for all people.
Our efforts are ongoing. While we strive to have the website adhere to these guidelines and standards, it is not always possible to do so in all areas of the website.
If, at any time, you have specific questions or concerns about the accessibility of any particular webpage, please contact WebsiteAccess@tenethealth.com so that we may be of assistance.
A minimally invasive option for your gallbladder condition
Your doctor may have recommended the removal of your gallbladder through a surgery called a cholecystectomy. Doctors Medical Center of Modesto offers da Vinci® Single-Site Gallbladder Surgery, which uses one small incision in the belly button and makes this procedure virtually scar less.

Minimal recovery pain
Faster recovery
Low blood loss
Virtually no scar
Most candidates for gallbladder surgery can opt for a da Vinci Single-Site Gallbladder Surgery. Talk to your doctor or call (877) 946-3604 to get more information.
