Why is it creepy? The Uncanny Valley Effect strikes again.

The uncanny valley is a hypothesis regarding the field of robotics.[2] The theory holds that when robots and other facsimiles of humans look and act almost like actual humans, it causes a response of revulsion among human observers. The "valley" in question is a dip in a proposed graph of the positivity of human reaction as a function of a robot's lifelikeness.

Just the thought that my sick father would be treated by a machine disturbs me.

Also, robots lack the intuitive measures of the quick, experienced hands of the surgeon, who by experience would know what to do in a threatening condition by recalling knowledge.
