The hospital added Stryker’s Mako robot in July 2020 through a partnership with Norwalk-based NOMS Access Orthopaedics. Fisher-Titus Medical Center was the first hospital in the region to use Mako for hip and knee replacements.

Mako provides surgeons with personalized plans, scanning patients to create a 3D model of the joint. It helps surgeons determine the best implant size and placements.

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.
