No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-1

File No. 333-216054
Ladies and Gentlemen:
In response to the Staff’s letter
of June 2, 2017, AVRA Medical Robotics, Inc. (the “Company”) hereby files Amendment No. 1 to the Registration
Statement on Form S-1.
The following sets forth the Company’s
response to the comments set forth in the Staff’s letter. For your convenience, the response to each comment follows the
comment itself.
Selling Shareholders,
page 20
Comment:
1. We note your response to our prior
comment
number 11. As an affiliate
of yours, it appears that Mr. Cohen may
have facilitated
a distribution
of shares by you without registration
to the referenced “third
parties” as
statutory underwriter.
Provide your analysis
of how sales to the
third parties was not such
a distribution,
or provide additional disclosure explaining
that these sales may
not have been conducted in compliance with
Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933
Response:
We believe that the transfers and sales
of shares by Mr. Cohen did not constitute a distribution, but rather a limited number of transfers and sales pursuant to exemptions
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The transfers
and sales, all of which occurred in 2016 and early 2017 prior to filing of the registration statement consisted of:
· The transfer of 1,527,000 shares without consideration for estate planning purposes to 13 family
members, which transactions were exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act as they did not constitute a “sale”
of a security pursuant to Section 2(a)(3) thereof.
Securities and Exchange Commission
Division of Corporation Finance
June 20, 2017
Page 2
· The sale of 1,350,000 shares to five non-affiliated parties in privately negotiated transactions
pursuant to the so called “Section 4(a)1-1/2” exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities
Act, each purchaser having entered into a written agreement with the seller and having provided customary investment representations.

Comment:
2. Please refer to comment
27. The audit report refers to the
audit of the year ended December 31, 2015
whereas your financial
statements
are presented for the period
from inception (February
4, 2015) to December
31, 2015. Please request your auditors
to revise their audit report to refer to this
period and not the
year ended December
31, 2015.
Response:
The auditors report has been revised
to correct the periods covered thereby.
Note 1. Organization and Basis
of Accounting, page F-7
Comment:
3. Please refer to comment
28. We do not see where
your revised disclosure responds to our comment.
Please tell us about your
relationship with AVRA
Surgical and tell us whether the
AVRA technology being used by AVRA
Medical Robotics was initially
developed by AVRA
Surgical.
Also include a chronology of the development
of the AVRA technology (the
surgical robotic
technology being used in your products) and the entities through which it was developed.
Response:
We hereby advise the Staff that other
than the involvement of Messrs. Cohen and Schauer as officers and/or directors of both companies, there is no legal, corporate
or financial relationship whatsoever between the Company and AVRA Surgical, Inc. Moreover, the Company is not using any of the
technology that AVRA Surgical, Inc. had in development. All the technology being used by the Company in developing its products
has been developed in conjunction with the University of Central Florida, pursuant to the Research Agreement entered into on May
1, 2016, as disclosed in the registration statement.
Note 3. Research
Collaboration Agreement,

Comment:
4. As requested in comment
29, please disclose how
you account for research
and development expenses.
Refer to ASC 730-10-25-1.
Response:

accounts for research and development expenses has been added as requested to the Staff.

Registration Statement on Form S-1 Filed February 14, 2017 File No. 333-216054 Ladies and Gentlemen: In response to the Staff’s letter of March 13, 2017, AVRA Medical Robotics, Inc. (the “Company”) hereby files Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement on Form S-1. The following sets forth the Company’s response to the comments set forth in the Staff’s letter. For your convenience, the response to each comment follows the comment itself. Prospectus Cover Comment: 1. Please include the dealer prospectus delivery obligation on the outside back cover of the prospectus. See Item 502(b) of Regulation S-K. Response: In response to the Staff’s comment, the requested disclosure regarding the dealer prospectus delivery obligation has been added to the outside back cover of the prospectus. Prospectus Summary, page 2 Comment: 2. Where you make qualitative statements, please identify the source of this information or characterize the statement as management’s belief. We note, for example, your disclosure on page 2 regarding robot’s “improved accuracy and visualization” that is “equal to or better than that of invasive surgery,” and collaboration between humans and robots being “so difficult to design well”; on page 3 regarding “one of the most important technical challenges”; and on page 31 regarding “some of the best robotic surgeons in the world,” “most respected hospital names,” and “strong relationships.” Securities and Exchange Commission Division of Corporation Finance May 11, 2017 Page 2 Response: The disclosure throughout the prospectus, including in the “Prospectus Summary” and “Proposed Business” sections, has been revised to give effect to the Staff’s comments. Comment: 3. We note your reference to www.allaboutroboticsurgery.com. Please see footnote 41 and the related text in Release 33-7856 (April 28, 2000) regarding your obligations when including web site addresses in your document, including the obligation to file linked information. Response: The website reference has been deleted in response to the Staff’s comment. Comment: 4. Since the global skin care market likely includes a wide variety of products and services, it is unclear how your disclosure of its size provides meaningful information to investors about your proposed business. Please revise or advise. Response: The disclosure has been revised to give effect to the Staff’s comment. Comment: 5. Refer to the first full paragraph on page 3 and your preceding disclosure regarding the surgical robotics industry. It is not clear how your anticipated product or service represents an “innovative approach” to this field. In the following paragraph you assert that improvements in “motors, materials and high resolution imaging allow” robotics in the treatment of damaged skin, but go on to state that you are not aware of a robotic product for skin repair. Please revise to make clear what opportunity your anticipated product is expected to address and how you know that the improvements you enumerate already allow for damaged skin treatment if there are no current products addressing this application . Response: The Company has substantially revised the disclosure as requested by the Staff. Comment: 6. In your discussion of the surgical robotics industry, revise to provide a clear picture of the state of current technology, including the very limited use and application of “real-time imagining,” and risks involved. Alternatively, you may choose to limit your discussion of those aspects of robotic treatment which would apply to your anticipated market, so that you create a realistic picture of where your possible business fits within the universe of medical robotics.
