The field of medical robotics is one of several new disruptive fields that is dramatically improving our lives. Medical surgery has come a long, long way since the days of sick people going to the barber for a rejuvenating "bloodletting." However, even today many surgeries are much as they were hundreds of years ago: it all comes down to a surgeon wielding a scalpel. This ancient practice is suddenly changing with the invention of robotic surgical assistants.
Robotics in the medical field was initially met with reluctance, skepticism, and downright disdain, but increasingly, robotic machines are assisting physicians in minor and major surgical procedures. The results have been dramatically beneficial: smaller and more precise incisions, faster recovery times, and better end results. This article provides an introductory overview of three promising stocks in the industry: the "500 pound gorilla," Intuitive Surgical Inc. (NASDAQ: ISRG); the "young gun," Mazor Robotics Ltd. (NASDAQ: MZOR); and the highly speculative very-recent IPO, Restoration Robotics Inc. (NASDAQ: HAIR).
