What if your surgeon told you the truth about every option - including the option to say no?


The Robotic Surgeon is the show for patients (and the family members researching on their behalf) facing surgery or weight-loss decisions. Your host, Dr. Hesham Atwa, MD, FACS, FASMBS, is a Master Robotic Surgeon with more than 22,000 operations and 2,500+ robotic cases, Chief of Surgery at two hospitals, author of Mastering Robotic Surgery, and a proctor who trains other surgeons in the operating room.


But what makes this show different isn't the credentials - it's the honesty. Dr. Atwa believes you deserve straight answers, not a sales pitch. Here you'll get the truth about what recovery actually feels like, when surgery is truly necessary, and when waiting - or skipping surgery altogether - is the right call.


Each episode answers the questions patients are actually asking:

  • Is robotic surgery safe - and does the robot really do the operating?
  • Can a hernia heal on its own? When is it an emergency?
  • Do I really need my gallbladder removed?
  • Ozempic or gastric sleeve? What happens when you stop the injections?
  • Can GLP-1 medications and surgery work together?
  • I lost the weight - now what about the loose skin?


From hernias, gallbladder, and general surgery to bariatric surgery, GLP-1 medications, revisions, and post-weight-loss skin tightening, Dr. Atwa is one of the few surgeons who guides patients through the entire journey - medication, surgery, or no surgery at all - and he explains it the way he'd advise his own family.


Whether you're preparing for a procedure, weighing your options, or researching for someone you love, you'll leave every episode knowing more than when you arrived.

  • Is Weight Loss Surgery Still Worth It in the Age of Weight Loss Drugs

    Is Weight Loss Surgery Still Worth It in the Age of Weight Loss Drugs
    2026/09/28

    Welcome back to The Robotic Surgeon with Dr. Hesham Atwa. In this episode, the conversation focused on the evolving landscape of obesity treatment, examining the choices between gastric sleeve surgery and anti-obesity medications (AOMs) such as GLP-1 receptor agonists. A key theme that emerged was the misconception that obesity is solely a matter of personal willpower; Dr. Atwa explored the significant role genetics and medical factors play in weight gain. Several points were raised, including the various options now available for weight loss, from lifestyle changes and medications to innovative surgical procedures, and the importance of treating obesity as a chronic disease similar to diabetes or cancer. Listeners will also gain insights into the practical realities behind each approach, the myths versus facts about surgery, and the positive impact effective treatment can have on quality of life.

  • What Nobody Tells You About Robotic Surgery

    What Nobody Tells You About Robotic Surgery
    2026/09/15

    Have you ever wondered if robots are performing surgery all on their own, like the medical version of a self-driving car? You're not alone: up to a third of patients think so, according to surveys. On this opening episode of The Robotic Surgeon, you will hear insights from Dr. Hesham Atwa, a leading robotic general and bariatric surgeon, chief of surgery at two hospitals, and the author of "Mastering Robotic Surgery." With over 20,000 operations under his belt, including more than 2,500 robotic surgeries, Dr. Hesham Atwa pulls back the curtain on what really happens in the operating room. From how robotic surgery works and what makes it safer, to who should (and shouldn’t) consider it, and what recovery is truly like, this episode promises real talk and no sugarcoating. If you’ve been Googling questions at 2 a.m. about robotic surgery, this is the episode for you.
