During their visit, the team observed our CORI robotic system in action and witnessed one knee replacement and three hip replacements alongside Professor Davis. They expressed deep appreciation for the opportunity to learn not only from Professor Davis’s surgical expertise but also from the overall theatre setup and the seamless coordination of our staff.

This collaboration provided valuable insights that will undoubtedly enhance their own surgical practice and benefit patients back home in Hungary. The Hungarian team also shared their gratitude for the warm hospitality extended by everyone at West Midlands Hospital.
