At the intersection of healthcare and technology, surgeons like Kathy Huan, MD, find efficiency, cost savings, and increased access to robotic surgery for patients who need it most. Scaling solutions for better patient care—that's Intuitive.
Our Thoracic Oncology Mobile Experience—purpose-built to advance the awareness of how Intuitive technologies help reduce the time from lung cancer diagnosis to intervention—recently visited the Orlando Health Cancer Institute. Together, we strive to increase lung cancer screening rates among those eligible in Florida and across the U.S. Technological advances in minimally invasive lung care, such as those provided by #IonByIntuitive, are only part of the answer. Care starts with screening—and we will continue our journey across the U.S. to help spread the word. Click here for important safety information: https://lnkd.in/ehV7ehkk
“I couldn’t believe it—it was a dream job, exactly what I was looking for but didn’t think existed.” Joses Jenish Smart joined Intuitive because of a shared vision: leaders here saw the potential of radio frequency identification (RFID)—the technology Jenish had been studying for years—to transform manufacturing. “If you can use an RFID tag on a water bottle or a laptop,” Jenish says, “Why not a medical instrument or accessory?” Intuitive agreed. An RFID pilot in Sunnyvale led by Jenish and Venkata M Mahesh Komati exceeded their initial target, improving tracking efficiency by more than 50%. As Jenish explains: “It used to take a technician an hour and a half to scan each individual barcode for all of the raw materials. With RFID, they can do it in 15 minutes. That’s especially critical because Intuitive’s products are so popular; our demand is outpacing our supply. The more efficient we can be, the more customers we can serve and the more patients they can help.” Head to our Careers Blog to hear from Jenish and Venkata about their work on RFID so far, and the “dream” of bringing RFID to Intuitive factories across the world: https://lnkd.in/ed4ydkvi #WeAreIntuitive

“When I talk with CEOs and other hospital leaders, of course they talk about the product and how it helps patients—but what they’re also excited about is the Intuitive team. They’re so proud to be working with these smart, helpful partners; they tell me, ‘This person you have in our OR is amazing. Don’t ever take them away!’” The pride Dirk Barten has in his team at Intuitive Europe is clear—as is his passion for growing Intuitive’s business in new markets. That growth means an incredible opportunity for people joining the Intuitive Europe team in this moment. “In a fast-growing organization like this one,” Dirk says, “someone who is willing to master our fundamental competencies and grow with the company can have a lot of doors open to them.” Hear more from Dirk on why the future of Intuitive is so bright: https://lnkd.in/eUi_7VsR #WeAreIntuitive
