According to the agreement, Perituskliniken will have access to its premises on 1 July 2020. The premises will then be fitted out and once that has been completed, the work of the clinic can commence. From the very beginning, the clinic will apply the latest technology in the area of minimally invasive surgery, also referred to as “keyhole surgery”.
“Among other things, this entails using robotic surgery for prostate cancer operations, allowing patients to be operated on more quickly, easily and safely”, says Åsa Dahm.
“Perituskliniken will also be at the leading edge in digitization, meaning that everything we do will be stored efficiently and securely. Another objective is for the clinic to work with research and development and, with some 140 different companies in fields including life science at Medicon Village, that world is close at hand. There are companies currently in the area that have made contact, seeking to initiate future collaboration. Several companies have also shown an interest in starting clinical research with us and at our facility”, says Åsa Dahm.
” The vision
is to provide care without
queues.
