The center has five surgeons trained to use the robotics system.

Jeffery Peretz, MD, a physician at Resurgens, performed the first joint replacement procedure at the center using the Mako robot in May. 

The center will now incorporate Mako’s 3D model planning software to give surgeons a more precise view of a patient’s anatomy.

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
