GULF MEDICAL COMPANY installed the 1stDavinci system in 2003 and since then we and our team of clinical specialists and field service engineers has been working side by side with surgeons, surgical teams and hospital management to continuously develop this technology in the Saudi market. GULF MEDICAL COMPANY is actively participating in continuous training for serious healthcare personnel, including nurses, surgeons and engineers on this technology and helped in developing many centers of excellence across the Kingdom. Our partnership with the hospitals as well as the surgeons ensures continuous improvement, development and better outcomes for patients, surgeons and hospitals.

In 2009, GULF MEDICAL COMPANY in collaboration with King Saud University Hospital opened the first training center in the Middle East. This training center and others will take the Robotic Surgery in the Kingdom to another level.
