July 11th, 2000, isn’t where our story began, but it was a landmark day in our mission to transform surgery—the day that the first da Vinci Surgical System received FDA clearance. In the years since, surgeons around the world have used five generations of da Vinci systems to help millions of patients. Each generation was an evolution of technology on a journey of progress that never truly ends. Transforming surgery for the benefit of patients, surgeons, and hospitals—that’s Intuitive.

For many of us at Intuitive, our commitment to patient care is personal. For John Coyne, our VP of Brand and Creative, this commitment became a reality when he faced a health challenge himself. An avid hiker and cyclist, John experienced severe pain that required da Vinci surgery to repair an inguinal hernia. John's journey with Intuitive began a year earlier, driven by his daughter’s dedication as a nurse practitioner. "This was a place where I could make a difference in my own way," John shares. "At Intuitive, we are at the forefront of healthcare and technology." Choosing da Vinci surgery was an easy decision for John after speaking with Dr. Beemen Khalil, MD, MS, FACS at Dignity Health Sequoia Hospital—and knowing that his colleagues made this technology possible. "The passion and the unbelievable engineering and technical prowess of everyone that works at this company gave me great confidence," John says. As we observe National Hernia Awareness Month, John reflects on how this innovative robotic system enabled his return to the activities he loves. “It's crucial for patients to know that da Vinci surgery is an option,” John emphasizes.
