Twenty-two local junior high and high school students took part in a simulated surgery, and other simulated medical procedures, at the Cedars-Sinai Women’s Guild Simulation Center for Advanced Clinical Skills, and were joined by Clippers forward Moussa Diabate and Clippers forward-center Daniel Theis.
The lucky students, part of the Los Angeles Clippers Foundation’s Mentorship Assist Zone program, were invited into a fully equipped operating room to participate in a simulated surgery with life-like mannequins. And they got to work with the latest robotic surgical tools being used for airway procedures, endoscopies and other treatments.
