Spine surgeons Richard Wohns, MD; Alex Mohit, MD, PhD; and Ken Nwosu, MD, acquired the robot for outpatient lumbar fusion cases. 

The Mazor X combines preoperative planning software with intraoperative guidance. Surgeons use the platform before a procedure to execute the surgery as accurately as possible.

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.
