Guyana is making medical history on Tuesday by participating in the groundbreaking robotic cardiac surgery that will be performed in that country by a specialist based in India.
President Irfaan Ali, addressing the Diamond Jubilee Flag Raising Ceremony on Monday night, said that the procedure will symbolise how far the country has advanced since gaining independence in 1966.
“…we will formally set our footprints in the history of healthcare. Our new surgeon, Mantra Freedom 60, will perform a cardiac surgery from Guyana to India. The longest-distance surgery in the history of mankind will be performed from the shores of Guyana tomorrow,” President Ali said.
