You have to learn human anatomy, not just bones and organs but you have to know where every blood vessel and significant nerve is (you don’t want to cut those either)

Also for the most part opening up a living body like lifting the hood of a car is over, most of it is done through a tube with tiny instruments.

FYI, a decade ago I was waiting for my mom at Madigan hospital when they had set up new million dollar robot controlled surgical machine (da vinci?) and since the doctors were inside the lecture hall I got to play with it, they had set up a demo where you tried to put rubber bands around various silicon shapes.
