Dubai: The UAE Healthcare sector secured yet another milestone as Dr. Mona Abdulaziz Kashwani at Al Qassimi Women and Children’s Hospital became the 1st Emirati Physician to perform robotic surgery in the country with a license from an accredited body.

Dr. Kashwani, a Specialist in Obstetrics & Gynecology, performs Total Hysterectomy, Supracervical Hysterectomy, Removal of Fibroid Tumors, Ovarian Cysts Removal, and Removal of Adhesions to treat Abdominal and Pelvic Pain.

The Gynecology Specialist has also carried out Uterine Prolapse and Uterine Retraction surgeries, caused due to multiple child deliveries.

Dr. MONA ABDULAZIZ KASHWANI

One of the most experienced doctors in robotic surgery in the UAE, Dr. Mona Abdulaziz Kashwani is a 2005 Graduate from Queen Mary University of London. Dr. Kashwani was later nominated by the Director of the Laparoscopic Operations and Robotic Surgery Programme at Al Qasimi Hospital, Consultant Dr. Zaki Al Mazki Al Shamsi, to join the Women Robotic Surgeons Program.

Dr. Essam Mohamed, Executive Director of Medical Services at Emirates Health Services (EHS), commended medical staff across various facilities affiliated with EHS for their efforts and dedication, reiterating EHS’ commitment to implementing its strategy and empowering medical and nursing staff across all of its facilities.

Emirates Health Services has taken considerable measures to improve the skills and efficiency of its medical staff, allowing hospitals and healthcare centers under its umbrella to be operated by highly qualified and experienced medical staff, Dr. Mohamed added, noting that the specialized training programs EHS offers have enabled medical professionals to lead sustainable development in the health sector and establish a healthy work environment across all EHS facilities.

I have spent countless hours after my shift using the surgical simulator for training and studying how the robotic system operates. This qualified me to receive a license to perform gynecologic robotic surgery using the advanced Da Vinci surgical robot from the IRCAD Training Centre in Strasbourg, France.

Dr. Mona Abdulaziz Kashwani remarked about her qualification to use Robots for Surgery.

Dr. Kashwani further added that, “I sincerely thank the wise leadership, who gave me the opportunity to be one of the few citizens who carry out this type of high-precision operations for patients using a robot.”

The Obstetrics & Gynecology Specialist elaborated that she had gained extensive experience with the program since its launch in 2019, carefully studying the Da Vinci surgical system, learning how to safely operate it, and working on all gynecological robotic surgeries.

DA VINCI SURGICAL SYSTEM

Launched in 1999, Da Vinci is an automated surgical system that performs minimally invasive surgical procedures and is considered the best in the world in terms of accuracy. US company Intuitive Surgical continues to update and develop the system, adding various new features.

Da Vinci is the 1st safe and effective surgical robot recognized by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that performs complex, minimally invasive surgeries with great accuracy, through a series of small incisions, which shortens the patient’s stay in the hospital, ensures faster recovery, and reduces the need for pain killers after the operation.
