The “Nightlights” Ladies’ Circle Meets "Da Vinci"
Not the artist, this Da Vinci is a surgical robot! Rev. Gary Arp, IDE District President Emeritus, arranged for the “introduction.” He and Mrs. Arp met the Williamsburg Circle at St. Luke’s Hospital in Cedar Rapids.
Introductions were made when two nurses from the surgery department brought Da Vinci into the Surgicare Waiting Room. With only a little instruction, each member of the group was given the opportunity to perform “surgery.” Fortunately they were not working on a real patient!
Da Vinci’s most common use is for hysterectomies and surgery for prostate cancer.
In case you are interested in buying one, a Da Vinci costs a mere 1.75 million dollars!
