Nyack, NY, September 2, 2026 – Montefiore Nyack Hospital is pleased to announce the recent acquisition of the Intuitive da Vinci 5® surgical system, designed with the goal of further advancing technology used in minimally invasive care. This is an updated version of the current da Vinci system that the hospital’s general surgeons, as well as members of the gynecology team, have utilized. All of these surgeons are trained in robotic surgery.

Da Vinci 5 is Intuitive’s most advanced and integrated platform—designed to transform surgery to enable better outcomes, efficiency, and actionable insights. Da Vinci 5 is the newest entry to the da Vinci portfolio of systems, which also includes da Vinci X®, da Vinci Xi®, and da Vinci SP®. The system can be used for minimally invasive surgical procedures for urology, gynecology, thoracic, and general surgeries.

With more than 150 new design innovations, da Vinci 5 expands upon core da Vinci system features, including wristed instruments, 3DHD visualization, intuitive motion, and an ergonomic design. As with all da Vinci surgical systems, the surgeon is 100% in control of the robotic-assisted da Vinci system, which translates their hand movements into smaller, more precise movements of tiny instruments inside the patient’s body.

The da Vinci 5 surgical system is not just an upgrade in technology, but a partner in bringing Rockland County advanced minimally invasive surgical options, said Ziad Kronfol MD, FACS, FASCRS, director of the Department of Surgery, and chief of the Division of Colon and Rectal Surgery. We are proud to offer cutting edge technology that minimizes hospital stays, healing time, and is close to home.
