A Robot Assisted the Heart Surgery, and the Patient Was Home in Four Days

66-year-old Paul Wickens had robotic coronary bypass surgery at St George's, one of only three London units able to do it, and was home in four days instead of a week. A new da Vinci system at Epsom will now extend the same approach to hundreds more patients a year.
