When I entered a complication into SurgicalPerformance, I checked my graph and realised my rate was still well below average. It helped me gain perspective, reset and move forward.

CHALLENGE
Managing stress, confidence & continuous improvement
As a specialist in endometriosis, chronic pelvic pain and robotic surgery, Dr. Michal Amir works in one of the most demanding and complex areas of women’s health. Her patients often come to her after years of misdiagnosis or failed treatments, carrying high expectations for answers and relief. The nature of these conditions means that even with technical precision and best-practice care, outcomes can be variable and recovery journeys unpredictable.
This clinical reality can take a toll. Like many surgeons, Dr. Amir faced the emotional weight of balancing patient hopes with surgical uncertainty. In high-stakes procedures, where complications or suboptimal results are sometimes unavoidable, it was important for her to have a clear picture of her performance across time. She wanted more than anecdotal reassurance. She needed hard data to validate her approach, track trends and know where she stood.

But while these requirements were essential, they came with a cost. Traditional systems for managing surgical records were often time-consuming, paper-based, or disconnected from day-to-day clinical workflows. For an experienced specialist juggling full surgical lists, teaching responsibilities, and ongoing patient care, the idea of adding more administrative tasks was simply unsustainable.

CHALLENGE
Managing stress, confidence & continuous improvement
With more than two decades of surgical experience, Dr. Petra Ladwig understood the importance of maintaining accurate records and meeting professional obligations. Over the years, she had witnessed the growing expectations around audit compliance and CPD reporting and the increasing demand for surgeons to back their expertise with structured data.

I joined not just for CPD. I needed a way to audit my surgeries, learn from them, and feel in control of my performance.
She was also committed to lifelong learning. As part of her professional values, Dr. Amir actively sought tools that could support her continuing professional development (CPD), strengthen her clinical decision-making and keep her accountable to her own high standards. Tracking outcomes in a structured, repeatable way offered an opportunity to spot patterns, evaluate techniques and refine her surgical practice over time.
But confidence in a surgical career isn’t just about skill or knowledge. It’s about being able to look at your body of work and feel grounded in it. Dr. Amir wanted a system that gave her this visibility - a way to see her results clearly, learn from every case and stay mentally resilient in a challenging specialty.
In short, she wasn’t just looking for audit software. She was looking for a partner in surgical self-reflection, performance growth and peace of mind.

SOLUTION
A reliable, evolving platform for clinical insight
Dr. Amir has logged over 1,0 cases in SurgicalPerformance, using it to:
Record and review outcomes across all major surgeries
Quickly enter post-op complications and benchmark against peers
Generate automated reports for hospital registriesReflect on surgical trends and durations, especially during her shift to robotic surgery

When I had a uterine perforation, I entered it into SurgicalPerformance and immediately saw that my overall rate was still good. It was reassuring and helped me move on.

With colposcopy, the integration is extremely helpful. I have the reporting requirements covered, a clear record for myself, and my CPD evidence all in one place.
COLPOSCOPY REPORTING
In addition to major surgical audits, Dr. Amir has found SurgicalPerformance particularly valuable for colposcopy reporting, where accuracy, documentation and compliance are critical.
The platform allows her to bring together three requirements that are traditionally fragmented:
clinical reporting, evidence of completion, and CPD documentation.
As reporting pathways continue to evolve, including online submission through PRODA as well as traditional paper-based processes, Dr. Amir values having a single system that supports every option.
SurgicalPerformance enables her to complete and retain records digitally while maintaining flexibility in how reports are submitted externally.
For Dr. Amir, this isn’t just about saving time. It’s about confidence, knowing that her documentation is complete, accessible, and aligned with professional requirements, without adding extra administrative burden to an already demanding clinical workload.
