Ashley Briggs, MD, FACOG, offers robotic surgery and consultations in obstetrics and gynecology at Access Health & Avera Medical Group in Marshall – Carlson Street.
An Expert in Obstetrics and Gynecologic Robotic Surgery
Over the course of her career, Dr. Briggs provided the wide spectrum of obstetric and gynecologic services. She offers specialized care in one of her favorite aspects — minimally invasive robotic surgery.
She cares for patients who are facing women’s health conditions such as endometriosis, ovarian cysts, abnormal bleeding and much more.
If your family medicine or OB/GYN provider discovers that you could greatly benefit from robotic surgery, you’ll receive a referral to meet with Dr. Briggs. After determining if you’re a good candidate, Dr. Briggs will perform the surgery and then works closely with your primary provider to ensure your care and recovery are seamless and performed to the highest quality.
Robotic surgery is a great tool for both the physician and the patient. Not only is the surgeon able to perform more complicated, precise operations, this type of surgery also leads to smaller incisions for the patient, less blood loss, reduced pain and faster recovery times.
“I love how robotic surgery can help women return to their busy and active lifestyles,” said Dr. Briggs.
Active Lifestyle
Outside of her work, Dr. Briggs enjoys a variety of hobbies. She, her husband and her two daughters live on a farm with their five corgis. She is also a crafty person, exploring art such as beadwork, stained glass and much more.
