Dr. Thompson was happy to share his expertise on a smarter surgery for a stronger you 🦴 🤖💪🏼

Donors recently got an exclusive look inside the future of medicine during our robotics insider event at Cape Coral Hospital. This interactive experience took guests into the operating room for a live demonstration of the robotic-assisted technology shaping care at Lee Health Cancer Institute and Lee Health Musculoskeletal Institute.

Dr. John Thompson, orthopedic surgeon, shared insights from his experience performing more than 1,000 robotic-assisted joint replacements, while Dr. Chase Cavayero, urologist, highlighted how he's completed over 200 robotic and laparoscopic kidney surgeries for both benign and malignant conditions.

From precision to faster recovery, robotic-assisted surgery is revolutionizing patient outcomes, and our donors got a firsthand look at the tools making it possible.
