- Computed TomographyThe Robotics Surgical System creates a customized 3D three-dimensional view that helps a surgeon choose the right implant for patients. In addition, the 3D digital model eliminates the need to get a CT scan of a knee before surgery, which reduces exposure to harmful radiation. The Robotics Surgical System also helps ensure that the procedure is performed as the surgeon planned, providing the benefits of enhanced accuracy compared to traditional knee surgery. Accuracy is essential because it not only helps the implant function as intended but also helps avoid uneven wear, which can shorten the longevity of an implant.

- Joint Replacement“Working with Mr. Ballenger was tremendously gratifying,” says Dr. Jesse Pace. “He was an excellent patient who worked hard, complied with therapy, and had an excellent outcome. The CORI robotic system allowed me to provide Mr. Ballenger with a surgical experience that was more precise and fine-tuned.

- Knee ReplacementAfter his consultation, it was determined that Ben needed a knee replacement and that he was a candidate for robotic-assisted knee surgery. A robotic knee replacement is like a traditional knee replacement in that a surgeon removes damaged tissue in a patient's knee and replaces it with an artificial joint. The difference is that it's done with assistance from a robotic arm.
- Breast Surgery
- Bariatric SurgeryGastric Bypass (laparoscopic Roux-en Y): This is the most common type of bariatric surgery. During this type of precedure, part of the stomach is separated from the rest of the stomach and closed off with staples to create a smaller pouch, resulting in less calorie absorption. Patients also have a greater sense of satisfaction with less food. The surgery results in less production of ghrelin, a hormone that may be partly responsible for making you feel hungry.
- Ulcer
- Lesions
- Sports MedicineFollowing the accident, Ben went to a local walk-in clinic, where he received an X-Ray of his injured knee. After a visit with his primary care physician, he was referred to Dr. Jesse Pace, an orthopedic surgeon with Lake Cumberland Orthopedics: Sports Medicine. Dr. Pace's office offers a wide range of orthopedic and sports medicine services, including total joint replacement, fracture care, issues arising from arthritis and overuse, sports, or physical activity-related injuries, and more. "My primary care physician told me Dr. Pace was one of the best around, and I trusted her opinion," says Ballinger.
- Physical TherapyBen does not minimize the pain associated with the procedure and the following physical therapy. "Whether you are at a hospital or home, there will be pain," he said. "I went to physical therapy after surgery. I also did therapy at home, which I think helped my recovery. It hurts, but it's necessary to get the movement back."
