Favorite Quotes

04:35 - "Coming from a background of doing non-robotic surgery, I saw the big difference robotics has made not only from a technical aspect as a surgeon but also from seeing patients do better and recover quicker." - Br. Bruno Gross

14:36 - "You can do knee replacement surgery without the robot, which is manual instrumentation. Now, the robot is a precision tool. What the robot affords you as a surgeon is more information. It allows you to position the components any way you want." - Dr. Bruno Gross

16:24 - "If someone comes to me with a really bad deformity, I can tailor how I put their knee replacement in with the robot. That allows me to make each knee replacement specific to the patient. And that translates to less pain, faster recovery for the patient, gaining their range of motion faster, and the knee feels more balanced." - Dr. Bruno Gross
