About this Podcast
HOST: Welcome to our podcast, today we're speaking with Dr. Sofia Robins, a leading expert in robotic-assisted surgery. She's here to discuss an exciting new course, the Graduate Certificate in Robotic-Assisted Pelvic Floor Reconstruction. Welcome, Dr. Robins! GUEST: Thank you for having me! I'm excited to be here. HOST: To start, could you tell us a bit about this graduate certificate and who it's designed for? GUEST: Of course. This program is tailored for urogynecologists, gynecologic oncologists, and robotic surgeons. It focuses on advanced minimally invasive techniques, specifically using the da Vinci surgical system for pelvic floor reconstruction. HOST: Fascinating. How has the industry evolved to make robotic-assisted surgery more prevalent in pelvic floor reconstruction? GUEST: Great question. There's been a growing demand for minimally invasive procedures that reduce complications and recovery time. Robotic-assisted surgery has become a key player, enabling surgeons to perform complex procedures with greater precision. HOST: What are some challenges faced in teaching robotic-assisted pelvic floor reconstruction, and how does this course address them? GUEST: One major challenge is the limited hands-on experience with the da Vinci system. This course offers surgical simulation and case studies, allowing learners to gain practical experience in a controlled environment. HOST: That's a valuable approach. Looking forward, what do you think the future holds for robotic-assisted pelvic floor reconstruction? GUEST: I believe we'll continue to see advancements in technology, making the procedures even less invasive and more precise. This will ultimately improve patient outcomes and expand the pool of eligible candidates for these life-changing surgeries. HOST: Dr. Robins, thank you for sharing your insights and discussing the Graduate Certificate in Robotic-Assisted Pelvic Floor Reconstruction. We're confident this course will empower healthcare professionals to make a real difference in their patients' lives. GUEST: Thank you for having me! It's been a pleasure discussing this exciting topic with you.
