The UF Health Orthopaedic Surgical Center will support outpatient services for total joint replacements and other orthopedic procedures, according to a Jan. 8 press release. 

The new facility will feature a da Vinci 5 surgical robot to perform less invasive procedures, making it the first health system in the Southeast to use the da Vinci 5.

The location will house eight operating rooms designed for orthopedic surgery. Currently, UF’s Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine Institute cares for more than 100,000 patients annually. 

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
