The knowledge base of Surgikal Assistants is clearly superior to the nursing and technical support staff of the OR. With their in-depth understanding of anatomy and surgical procedures, they anticipate my next steps – greatly increasing my efficiency in surgery.

I’ve been fortunate to work with the same Surgical Assistant on a regular basis. He’s become a co-surgeon; not only setting, closing, etc., but drawing on our shared experience to successfully complete challenging cases. Together we have delivered the best outcomes that could be expected in any given situation.

I am very impressed with the knowledge and capabilities of the Surgical Assistants from Surgikal. From the very first procedure, we’ve worked well together. One of my patients required a particularly difficult procedure – I could not have done this case without his help.
