Domino effect is basically what happens in the medical industry . Typically people are creatures of habit the gentleman that indicated many surgeons will resist a technique that he or she doesnt know or feel absolutely comfortable with is correct that will be an issue . However that will delay the process but do not be misled just like Laps have become the standard for so many cases today MIS especially robotics are next in line.
Many physicians strive for something better continually challenging themselves as well as their equipment in pursuit of creating a higher standard as well as elevating what we call standard of care in your area.
Doctors as a group myself included can be a self righteous bunch and extremely competitive but also very driven that drive is what pushes medical techniques to evolve .
I can remember the bone guys saying these new arthroscopes are not going to fly how can you critically examine the interior of a knee with such a limited view. Obviously others in that discipline felt like a newer more modern approaches had huge benefits .
Today's orthopedic surgeons could not imagine opening knees for minor repairs beyond an arthroscope .
I am so greatful that INTUIT paved the way for us in many ways . They have stood up rows of dominos. Some of the people I like to refer to as branch inspectors can't understand why I don't respect today's major player in the space . Do you think Blackberry feared Nokia or the I phone feared blackberry ,,,,, no its rediculous looking backwards. But the branch inspectors see a branch others see a tree and in my opinion many ,,,, yes even on this board see a forest.
For the ones that keep saying single port can not compete with multiport I only see one area that will be obvious in a few years they can throw more wet laundry or hang more coats on a Da Vinci .
In the past things start a little slow then a flurry hospitals do not like to appear outdated or behind. Those with the fortitude to stay in this investment for 24 to 36 months will be richly rewarded .
Just my opinion of course
