Meadowview’s orthopedic care center received the robot on Aug. 16 and has since completed two surgeries. This is the first time a Mako robot has been used locally, according to the report. 

The robot will result in less risk, more precision and faster recovery times for patients in the area. 

At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
