You have successfully used robotic surgery in your Urology and Oncology departments. What has been your experience?
We use Robotics for multiple specialties including the ones listed above. Use of this technology has helped enhance the quality of surgeries with reduced tissue injury, lower blood loss and faster healing. The problem of limited accessibility especially in some of the complex surgeries which involve difficult to reach areas of the body has been overcome to a large extent.
Are patients warming up to being operated upon by doctors assisted by robots?
Yes, increasingly patients are becoming aware of such technology aided innovations. Today, more and more patients, especially millennials are ready for the use of robot-aided techniques to improve their experience of surgery and hospital stay.

Since Robotics is not covered by Insurance till now, the added cost is borne by the patient himself which is a deterrent for many.
