The Cause

Thanks to your generous support of this year’s gala, Surrey Memorial Hospital will soon be equipped with a state-of-the-art surgical robot to establish its new regional surgical robotics program.

The Da Vinci Xi provides surgeons with improved 3D visualization and precision control of surgical instruments. Benefits to this include fewer surgical complications, decreased length of hospital stays, and better patient outcomes.

Adding this regional program to Surrey Memorial Hospital will drive surgical advancement and help attract top surgical talent to deliver best-in-class patient care.

Step into a world where ethereal meets mystery. As the twilight descends, the ancient trees whisper secrets of fairy tales long forgotten, their leaves rustling like pages in a story. The warmth of nostalgia pulls you into the depths of your memories, where time seems to feel like nothing more than a dream. The woods come alive with an enchanting allure, illuminated by a fantastical glow casting shadows on the forest floor. As you wander deeper into the woods, the atmosphere thickens with anticipation. As the tale unfolds, our story is written.
