Thank you to the faculty for the warm welcome and to Dr. Yara Gorski for prioritizing mentorship, representation, and opportunity within surgery. Creating space for dialogue, growth, and community is how we continue to move our field forward. And thak you to Anna Hattem, CSR for Intuitive for your support.

Grateful for the opportunity to share my experiences with da Vinci surgery and dv5 and demonstrate the broad application across all aspects of general surgery and Acute Care.

The International Women in Surgery Symposium was truly an inspiring and energizing meeting. It is a powerful reminder of the importance of advancing women in surgery at every stage of our careers—supporting and elevating one another, mentoring, and uplifting the next generation. The networking, sense of community, and spirit of collaboration were unmatched.

A huge thank you to for her exceptional leadership, resilience, and unwavering support of all of us. Hosting this meeting for the 16th year, and somehow making each year better than the last, is no small feat.

It is always so great to catch up with old friends and meet new ones, women from all over the world; and capped off by the honor of hearing a keynote from the Tampa Mayor, Jane Castor.
I am so grateful to be part of such a meaningful and impactful community and look forward to next year!

I had a wonderful time at the 2025 Finnish Operative Days in Helsinki. 🇫🇮 It was an honor to share our U.S. experience with da Vinci Emergency Colon Surgery and to discuss the “how and why” behind building an Acute Care Robotics program aimed at improving health equity.

I especially enjoyed meeting and learning from colleagues from Finland and Belgium. 🇫🇮🇧🇪🇺🇸
Despite being thousands of miles apart, we share the same mission: expanding access to minimally invasive care for all patients.

A heartfelt thank-you to the Intuitive Nordic team for another excellent trip and an inspiring meeting.
