Concern that governments are slow to respond to concerns about non- surgical cosmetic complications. This is not about looking after the practitioners it is about looking after patients! @SaveFaceUK Care givers are here for patients. Nothing else matters

@RoshanaMN @DeakinSue1 @OrthopodReg @RCSnews @LiangRhea I’d be wary of commissioning more work, there is plenty of data either out there (@OrthopodReg & @beckybeckyfish article, the Times article, LOST study, STEP & many others). What should come next is work to re-design/implement change which is the harder bit.

Having worked with @RoyalPapworth for a number of years, I am delighted to be sharing this news and to see the team adopt #Versius so that more of their patients can benefit from minimal access surgery.
🇬🇧 We are to become the first UK hospital to use the @CMRSurgical Versius robot for thoracic surgery. This cutting-edge technology will allow our surgical teams to perform more even minimally invasive surgery, improving patient outcomes. 💙 👉 https://t.co/3ypOJuSJuF

"It is inevitable that robotic surgery will become as ubiquitous as CT and MRI scanners are today" Read MD for Planned Care @enherts, Richard Hammond's piece in @thetimes on how #roboticsurgery can help reduce #NHS backlog: https://t.co/SGFyulKVXx

Always great to hear from our surgeons utilising #Versius' capabilities. We're constantly working to improve our technology to provide the best experience for surgeons and patients alike. Thank you @mohameddmagdyy for sharing your experience!
I tried the CMR Versius robot in the dry lab today. The open console and the ability to work standing is definitely a plus. #versius @CMRSurgical #Robotics #urology #UroSoMe #MedTwitter #Medical
