Why You Need A Surgical Assistant

Heart surgery is difficult enough…

“Make everything as simple as possible, but not simpler”.

- Albert Einstein

Heart surgery is not theoretical physics. It may well be more challenging. You need a Surgical Assistant who is more than just a technician, someone who can enable you to offload your cognitive load and reduce the stress of operating.

That’s the premise of having an experienced Surgical Assistant. So you can focus on the important life-saving tasks and not waste your time; streamline operations; improve surgical efficiency and workflow; and speed up list turnover.

Simply, it lets you be supported by another pair of trained eyes and hands, and the intuition of another mind.
