Dr. Neelima Lakshmikanth
KIMS Hospital
Consult Gynecologist

[after completing the robot-assisted surgery training course at Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Buffalo, NY]
I am grateful and thrilled to inform that I have done my first robotic hysterectomy three days after my arrival from your training program. The Ross has been of great help in understanding the robotic principles.

Dr. Joseph Barone
Robert Wood Johnson Medical Center New Brunswick, NJ

Training with the RoSS is going well. The residents are actually using it without encouragement, which is unusual for a simulator.

Director of Robotic Urologic Surgery

The HoST system is nothing less than a game-changer in the world of surgical education. Why nobody thought of it before is hard to fathom in hindsight.

Dr. Neal Seymour
Baystate Simulation Center & Surgical Skills Lab
Director

It’s amazing how similar it is to the da Vinci console!

Dr. Ellen Brock
OBGYN and Medical Director Center for Human Simulation & Patient Safety Virginia Commonwealth University
Associate Professor

The Ross simulator allows our residents to become proficient at the robotic console outside the OR. Residents are better able to focus on critical elements of the surgery when they are not attempting mastery of the console at the same time. Skills practice on the RoSS simulator has quickly become a key part of our surgery training.
