Let's Visit the ORSI Academy! World class robotic surgery training facility

About this episode

An exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the world-famous ORSI Academy in Belgium! Declan and Renu travelled to this remarkable facility just outside Ghent in Belgium, jammed full of tens of millions of dollars worth of robotic surgery technology from the world's top providers - Intuitive Surgical, Medtronic, Microport and more. Every day, surgeons from all around the world are getting hands-on experience using the latest robotic surgery technology in an array of training environments. Plus ORSI Academy hosts many academic programs, live surgery events, telesurgery demonstrations, and is actually expanding to do even more! 
We get a superb tour of the building hosted by Urologist, Dr Ruben de Groote, who also tells us about Surgquest, the digital arm of ORSI Academy, which hosts an incredible library of surgical education videos, and we also chat with ORSI Academy founder and CEO, Dr Alex Mottrie, world-renowned urologist and pioneer of robotic surgery. Plus we hear first hand from senior Urology Fellows, Dr Edoardo Beatrici, and Dr Mario de Angelis, about how the ORSI Academy proficiency-based progression training works in practice. 

This one much better enjoyed on our YouTube channel!
