“We design to make the system as Intuitive as possible,” said Iman Jeddi, Senior Vice President & General Manager, da Vinci Platforms & Product Services. Last month, Jeddi sat down for an interview at DeviceTalks West Innovation and Industry Forum to speak about Intuitive’s long-term vision and the future of surgical robotics. Listen to the podcast to hear about where robotic-assisted surgery is headed. Purposeful design, that’s Intuitive. https://lnkd.in/gh5k7AuZ --- 𝘐𝘮𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘴𝘢𝘧𝘦𝘵𝘺 𝘪𝘯𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘍𝘰𝘳 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘵 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘥 𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥/𝘰𝘳 𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘶𝘴𝘦, 𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘬𝘴, 𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘧𝘶𝘭𝘭 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘣𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘯𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯, 𝘳𝘦𝘧𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘴𝘴𝘰𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘶𝘴𝘦𝘳 𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘶𝘢𝘭(𝘴) 𝘰𝘳 𝘷𝘪𝘴𝘪𝘵 𝘩𝘵𝘵𝘱𝘴://𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘴.𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘶𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘨𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮/𝘮𝘢𝘳𝘬𝘦𝘵.

How do you expand access to better care for all? By creating environments where surgeons and care teams can learn, grow, and share knowledge. That’s exactly what is happening at Adventist Health Simi Valley where Dr. Andrea Pakula, and the Robotics Program team, are welcoming visiting surgeons to learn about advances in robotic surgery, including the da Vinci 5. We are grateful for hospitals who make collaboration and education a priority. When learning is shared, expertise grows and the impact reaches far beyond the hospital walls—helping advance the future of care for patients and communities everywhere.

At Adventist Health Simi Valley, our Robotics Program, led by Dr. Andrea Pakula MD, MPH, FACS, continues to attract experienced surgeons and medical teams from around the region who come to observe, learn, and become familiar with the latest advancements in robotic surgery, including the da Vinci 5 system. We want to take a moment to shout out and thank Dr. Pakula and our surgical and perioperative teams for their ongoing commitment to education and innovation. By welcoming visiting surgeons each month and openly sharing knowledge and best practices, they help expand expertise, strengthen confidence in new technology, and elevate the standard of care far beyond our hospital walls. These efforts don’t just advance medicine — they ultimately benefit patients and communities, ensuring more people have access to safer, more precise, and minimally invasive surgical care. We’re proud to be a place where learning is shared, innovation thrives, and excellence inspires others.

Transforming care through advanced technologies. Empowering surgeons with insights and recommendations in real-time. Ultimately, expanding the potential of physicians to heal without constraints. That’s Intuitive. *Features and technologies discussed here are still in development, not 510(k) cleared and the safety and effectiveness of the product has not been established. The technology is not currently for sale in the U.S.
About every 9 minutes, someone in Italy has a da Vinci surgery. Globally, it’s about every 11 seconds. That’s the power of proven outcomes. But these numbers are just where we are now. Imagine what happens as AI drives the next phase of adoption. We’re at Italian Tech Week with Dr. Filippo Filicori talking about Intuitive's vision to improve patient care by leveraging AI to deliver insights and recommendations in real-time at the point of care. Picture a world in the future where da Vinci 5 uses machine vision to identify anatomy, and leverages insights from a combination of published evidence, as well as video and system events from millions of patient encounters. Now, picture how that data might be used to improve clinical decision-making. Here’s what excites us most: AI isn't here to replace surgeons. It’s here to amplify them. It's an added layer of skill, precision, and awareness. Another set of eyes on the field. Another source of insight in the moment. Expanding the potential of physicians to heal without constraints. That’s Intuitive. #WeAreIntuitive #ITW25 Henry Charlton Brian Miller Anthony Jarc Dirk Barten Marcus Bland Stephen Thompson Kristina Carden Anna Sartorelli Laura Ferro

"It sounds like science fiction,” writes Intuitive Chief Digital Officer Brian Miller. “In 2001, Professor Jacques Marescaux and his team performed the first telesurgical procedure, known as 'Operation Lindbergh.' This groundbreaking surgery connected a patient in Strasbourg with surgeons in New York for a successful transatlantic gallbladder removal." Read about the evolution of telesurgery from the perspective of one the people who was there at the beginning:
Twenty-five years ago, I was an engineer for Computer Motion, the company which designed the robotic surgical platform used in "Operation Lindbergh”���the first telesurgical procedure ever performed. My role as a software developer was to work with clinicians to address safety concerns associated with performing a procedure across thousands of miles. Inspiring as it was, demonstrating that telesurgery was possible in 2001 did not mean that it was ready to be deployed safely, or repeated at scale. This is my story—and what I learned from it.

At Intuitive’s 2025 Annual Commercial Meeting in Dallas, Texas, Dr. Samantha Baah and Dr. Nana Baah, a dynamic married couple, captivated the audience with their discussion about Ion—a cutting-edge robotic bronchoscopy platform. Samantha, a pulmonary and critical care physician, and Nana, also known as Yaw, an interventional radiologist, are at different stages in their journey with the Ion system. Samantha has been utilizing the system for more than two years, having established a highly successful robotics practice. In contrast, Nana had his first experience with the system at the event, exploring its potential impact on his field of medicine. After their presentation, we spoke with them about their approaches to medicine and the sources of their motivation.
