Testimonials

Erwan, Marjorie and Pierre were helpful and accommodating since day 1 of 3 day workshop. They were attentive of my moves during the training and keeps on giving tips and tricks on going about certain situation on robotic surgery. I commend them for doing great job in training us.

I didn’t know much about the Stan Institute except for what information was available in the website. But having gone those 3-days training I received, I would say that they really offered a well structured teaching on the theoretical and practical aspects of Robotic surgery, but most of all emphasizing safety as this technology is useful only if you really know the potential benefits of its use. I would definitely recommend this course to my colleagues.

Very comprehensive training for robotic fundamentals and trainers are very knowledgeable and accommodating.

Perfect course it is a must, for everybody that want to practice robotics. I will recommended to other colleagues.

That was an excellent course, by a dedicated and with deep knowledge of the robotic system faculty. I highly recommend it.

Excellent course, the instructors are very knowledgeable and pay great attention to details. They go over basic and advanced principle of robotic surgery. I highly recommend.

Amazing Course. From the beginning to the end, great instructors, facilities and practice exercices. Recomended.

This course was extremely well organized. The main instructors (Erwan, Marjorie + Antoine) were excellent. They knew the Da Vinci systems well + able to explain everything in English well. The lunches + social event was a nice bonus that I did not expect.

Very valuable course. Lots of simulation practice, practical observation & practical tips. Also exposure to microsurgery which reinforces robotic techniques.

Beyond my expectations. I will surely recommend it to anyone willing to become a robotic surgeon.

This course is very well structured with a great amount of practical activity. It makes you grow confidence and manuality in the robotic interaction. The staff is very prepared and professional and is always careful in correcting your mistakes and guiding you in order to learn the best. I am very satisfied from this course and expecially from the high level of the Nancy Surgical School and the Stan Institute. I will remain in contact for further new courses.

Great Team And Really Great Course

A hidden gem.
Entire staff was awesome. Very thorough, well structured program, best in the known world for sure. I also had great wonderful classmates !!

An excellent course !
Which made a huge difference to my skills and confidence.
Highly recommended !

GREAT COURSE. Very helpfull. Didactic lessons learned on practice essentially. Teachers well trained for learning. Progression is real from D1 to D2. I recommend.

Very professional and friendly at the same time ❤️

Stan Institute represents an amazing team doing a great job in helping surgeons to make first steps, or to improve in the field of robotics. The program is perfectly structured leading at the end of the week to a great level of confidence regarding control over the da Vinci system.
I will definitely recommend this course to all my colleagues who want a smooth start in robotic surgery. I want to thank all members of Stan Institute: Marjorie, Erwan, Jean Pierre and the medical staff that supports you! It was an intense week which gave me the basic skills and confidence. Keep doing that good job and expect more participants from Germany in the future! Hope to see you again!

Extremely well structured and curated program
warm cheerful atmosphere
Aviation veterans ( Erwan,Marjorie,Jean Pierre) along with Drs Prof J.Hubert/Nicolas possess a range of skills to truly provide a transformational experience
Essential for those who intend to start robotic surgical practice
Strenuous course but distinctly worthwhile
would recommend it to anyone intending a career in robotic surgery !!

The course – well organized with lots of practical experience on the trainer building up nicely to a wet lab experience. Taught the essentials on the robot itself and the team required. Builds basics and confidence to take the robotic surgery practice forward. Intense hours.

The staff – friendly and knowledgeable. Willing to help whenever needed and attentive to details.

The city – beautiful and full of history.

Would highly recommend this diploma for anyone wanting to establish a practice in robotic surgery.

Extremely well organized and comprehensive week.
Surrounded by a professional team, each workshop has been designed to improve each of the necessary sectors, the good practice of the robotic approach.
Despite a great experience in laparoscopic surgery, I can not conceive to begin its robotic activity without such training.
Intensive days but in the end … what a reward and “facility” during the first “In vivo” case.
I have advised this Diploma of the STAN INSTITUTE to all my colleagues, including those who threw themselves into there first case without this training.
Workshops oriented towards certain pathologies are being organized … I will certainly be leaving considering the level of rigor and professionalism
