Abstract: A surgical robot and a surgical robot control method ensure a stable change of an operation mode. The surgical robot includes a master device having an input unit, a slave device having at least one robotic surgical instrument that is remotely controlled by the master device, and a controller that performs a mode change process to gradually vary the strength of a feedback signal fed back from the slave device to the input unit for a predetermined time when a signal for a change of an operation mode is input via the input unit.
