FAQ

Is the robot performing the surgery on its own?

No. The surgeon is in full control at all times. The robotic system assists by translating the surgeon’s movements into precise actions.

 

Is robotic-assisted surgery safe?

Robotic-assisted surgery is widely used and designed to support precision and control. Your healthcare provider will advise whether it is appropriate for your condition.

 

What is recovery like?

Recovery varies depending on the procedure and individual patient. Your healthcare team will guide you on what to expect.

 

Will I have scars?

Robotic-assisted surgery often uses smaller incisions, which may result in smaller scars compared to traditional surgery.
