Isrg isn't wrong on hernia repair, maybe a bit premature. The technology is kinda there and in the right hands it is better than lap. Just like almost any other procedure where the tech is there or close, a good robotic surgeon is better than a good lap surgeon for a given procedure. Those who don't believe that are soon to be playing catchup or out of a job. Patients will want single incision and in fact will seek it out if given the choice. Therein is Isrg biggest mistake, not creating patient demand. There are some others, but as the tech evolves, every operation is going to use a robot.
