Half of the world’s population lacks access to essential health services. That’s why SRS is proud to partner with the World Health Organization to explore how digital solutions like telesurgery and virtual care can bridge this gap. Watch the video to learn how we’re working to make quality surgical care accessible.

A conversation between robotic surgery legends is coming soon! Dr. Jacques Marescaux and Dr. Patel share insights from the cutting edge of surgical innovation. #SRS2025 #RoboticSurgery #SurgicalInnovation #MedicalInnovation

We once hoped telesurgery could connect the world. Now it's happening. 🔹 6+ platforms 🔹 Multiple countries + patients 🔹 10+ companies showing up 🔹 Real-world training + better access to care 🎥 Watch how #SRS2025 is leading this global shift. #Telesurgery #RoboticSurgery #GlobalHealth

From local roots to global impact. What began as a U.S.-based initiative is now the world’s largest international robotic surgery gathering, with over 20,000 members from 70+ countries and growing. In this new video from SRS 2025, leaders reflect on how telesurgery and global collaboration are transforming access to advanced care, from Canada to Angola and beyond. 🎥 Watch how SRS is shaping the next chapter of surgical innovation, and what it means for the future of healthcare around the world. #SRS2025 #RoboticSurgery #Telesurgery #GlobalHealth #MedicalInnovation #FutureOfSurgery #SurgicalRobotics #SRSLegacy

A conversation with Fred Moll of Moon Surgical. @MoonSurg #SRS2025 #RoboticSurgery

It’s not just a conference, it’s a test drive into the future of surgery. At #SRS2025, the exhibition floor is alive with innovation. Robotics companies from around the world are inviting attendees to get hands-on with the latest surgical technologies, from multi-port systems to orthopedic bots. Just like test-driving a car, this is a rare opportunity to experience these breakthrough technologies before they transform operating rooms across the globe. Why do innovators come to SRS? Because this is a space built for true collaboration, across borders, specialties, and systems, where companies and surgeons can connect ethically, openly, and without barriers. The robotics future isn’t coming. It’s already here. #RoboticSurgery #MedicalInnovation #Telesurgery #FutureOfSurgery #SurgicalRobotics #HealthcareTechnology #GlobalHealth

🌍 FDA-Approved, Globally Impactful. For the first time in history, the FDA has approved an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) human clinical trial for transcontinental robotic telesurgery—and it was led by Dr. Vipul Patel @vipulpatelmd, Executive Director of the Society of Robotic Surgery. From Orlando to Angola, Dr. Patel performed a robotic prostatectomy on a cancer patient over 17,000 km of fiber optic connection, marking a major leap forward in global healthcare access.
