This may be what prompts a DOJ or IG investigation for false claims, if so that's going to put huge pressure on this company.

We've seen this before with ISRG. It's the short-sellers who are making the false claims, not ISRG. If you read up on this, you'll see this is a bunch of malarky. And not new, either.

Two choices here
1 - Stick with ISRG and hope this a storm in a teacup, that short sellers are just trying to scare you out of a great company!
2 - Take profits here....Even great companies have set backs...Apple recently dropped from $700 to $500 for little apparent reason. Best to always remember a profit isn't a profit until you closed the trade and the money is in your bank. I don't have any axe to grind...but follow ISRG as an interesting growth play. Before making any rash decisions, it's worth reading the above highlighted Citron report.....and take it's findings with a pinch of salt.tc

I was a patient in which the DaVinci was used in a procedure that usually requires blood transfusion due to blood loss. Blood loss with the DaVinci was minimal, no transfusion was needed and I felt so good the day after abdominal surgery I had to be prevented from going to work. Others I have spoken to who had similar surgery using conventional methods spoke of pain, long bed confinements, etc. DaVinci procedures cost more, but save hospitalization time, transfusions and means quicker recovery.
