Crestwell students get hands-on time with surgical robots at Gulf Coast Medical Center

Crestwell students spent a morning at Lee Health's Gulf Coast Medical Center working with the Da Vinci surgical robots the hospital's surgeons use, with the surgical team explaining how the machines translate a surgeon's hands into precise movements. WGCU, Southwest Florida's NPR and PBS station, covered the visit.

It's the kind of learning by doing that a school with small classes can arrange and a large one rarely can: a hospital, a handful of students, and a morning that turns a science unit into a career question. Coverage: WGCU.
