Dr. Kephart performed both a partial and total knee replacement, Delray Beach, Fla.-based Delray Medical Center said July 28. 

Delray Medical Center reportedly is the only hospital in southern Palm Beach County offering the Cori robotic system.

The Cori system is designed specifically for each patient, doesn’t rely on preoperative imaging and includes a handheld tool surgeons can use with their own techniques.

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.
