“What we do has a huge impact—and that’s what drives me.” — Jonathan Edwards, Director, Global IT Support Services In this short video, Jonathan shares what purpose looks like inside Intuitive: solving complex problems that matter, supporting teams who are helping transform minimally invasive care, and showing up every day to make things a little better than the day before. His story is a reminder that impact at Intuitive isn’t abstract. You see it in the OR, in the data centers and labs, and across the global teams who keep our systems running for surgeons and their patients.

At Intuitive, we’re driven by constant innovation in pursuit of better patient outcomes. For lung cancer patients like Doug, our Ion system helps make that possible. Doug needed a lung nodule biopsy, and instead of undergoing thoracotomy open surgery, he was able to get a biopsy with Ion. He went home the same day, and soon after started treatment—and is now cancer-free. During hashtag#LungCancerAwarenessMonth, we’re proud of Ion’s impact in the field of lung cancer, giving physicians the minimally invasive technology they need to better serve patients. It’s how we transform lung cancer care, together.
are. At the Intuitive Innovation Forum 2025, hospital leaders are sharing how investing in robotic-assisted surgery makes this possible. Minimally invasive surgery with Intuitive’s da Vinci technology has been shown to reduce complications and readmissions, which can potentially lower the total cost of treatment. Faster patient recovery opens bed capacity for new cases, increasing throughput without expanding resources. And when flexible financing models like Intuitive’s pay-as-you-go make this technology more accessible, hospitals can grow their surgical programs and attract the skilled surgeons needed to sustain that growth. Treating more patients while reducing costs. That’s Intuitive.
At hashtag#Intuitive360, healthcare leaders from around the world came together to share their journeys, exchange insights, and witness exciting innovations in robotic surgery and bronchoscopy. From hands-on learning in the IntegratEd space to powerful stories of transformation, the event showcased the collaborative spirit and innovative advancements within the Intuitive Ecosystem. We sat down with a diverse group of attendees to hear their reflections on the event—and discover what inspires them to keep driving healthcare forward.
Efficiency isn’t about more staff—it’s about empowering surgeons to do more. Hospitals across Europe are advancing operational efficiencies by giving surgical teams the tools to work smarter. With da Vinci surgical systems from Intuitive, surgeons gain greater autonomy in the OR—so every team member can stay focused on what matters most: the patient. By standardizing workflows and reducing variability, da Vinci technology can help expert teams perform more consistently while new surgeons build skills faster. The result? Procedures run smoothly, patients recover fast, and hospitals can turn limited capacity into new opportunities. At the Intuitive Innovation Forum, European healthcare professionals are sharing how da Vinci surgical systems help empower their teams to do more. Because operational strength starts with surgeon autonomy.
As we continue to expand access to minimally invasive care in Asia-Pacific and beyond, Gary Guthart, Executive Chair of Intuitive’s Board of Directors, recently concluded a meaningful trip across the region, visiting India, Singapore, and China. In addition to meeting key policymakers and healthcare leaders, Gary engaged in a Global MedTech Leadership panel at the APACMed conference and the CNBC Fireside Chat to share insights on innovation and collaboration in healthcare. As a keynote guest at the 37th Shanghai Mayor’s International Business Leaders Advisory Council (IBLAC), Gary joined discussions on the innovation ecosystem driving Shanghai’s transformation, highlighting Intuitive’s continued investment in local R&D, manufacturing, and training — including our Intuitive Fosun hub in Pudong, the largest in Asia-Pacific. “Asia is home to some of the most dynamic and fast-evolving healthcare systems in the world,” Gary shared. “We’re proud to collaborate with hospitals and care teams to expand access, support innovation, and improve the experience of patients and clinicians alike.” As we mark nearly 30 years of pioneering minimally invasive care, we remain committed to empowering healthcare professionals and shaping the next era of surgery, together.
Ask anyone at Intuitive what it takes to succeed, and you’ll hear a common answer: curiosity. The drive to understand how things work—and how they could work better. The willingness to ask questions that others might overlook. The persistence to dig deep into complex problems and find the real root of a challenge. That mindset shows up everywhere here—from engineers refining a design for months until it’s just right, to clinical teams learning everything they can to support surgeons in the OR. Curiosity fuels the breakthroughs that move our mission forward. It’s how we keep learning, keep improving, and keep finding new ways to help doctors deliver better outcomes for their patients.

Today is World Quality Day—a perfect time to share what inspires us at Intuitive. Our drive isn’t just about making advanced da Vinci instruments, but also the machine testing that defines their precision. Each hour we spend refining our tools helps surgeons, around the globe, advance the future of minimally invasive care. It’s all about giving surgeons the tools they need to make a real difference for people when it matters most. #WorldQualityDay#WeAreIntuitive
Every conversation, connection, and insight shared at events like hashtag#AAGL has a butterfly effect. One that pushes the world toward profoundly better, minimally invasive care. During Intuitive’s peer-led forum, Drs. Olga Muldoon and Asha Bhalwal shared clinical procedure reviews and case outcomes when using da Vinci 5 for gynecological procedures. Whether in larger forums or smaller breakout sessions, discussions were all focused on one thing: improving care for women with da Vinci surgery. Even after a conference ends, this passion and commitment is what fuels progress in better patient care—and, as always, we’ll continue to innovate to help physicians achieve that goal.
At Intuitive, innovation isn’t confined to the lab or design studio. It happens everywhere—on our production lines, in our support teams, and across our global sites. Innovation here means asking why not as often as what if. It’s about challenging assumptions, improving processes, and finding smarter, safer ways to help surgeons and care teams deliver better outcomes for patients. When everyone feels empowered to think differently, small ideas can become breakthroughs that shape the future of minimally invasive care.
