Systems and methods for providing assistance to a surgeon for minimizing errors during a surgical procedure are disclosed. A method includes creating a Three-Dimensional (3D) model of a patient using at least one image of an affected area of the patient. Surgical paths are retrieved for performing a surgical procedure. A surgical path, selected by a surgeon, may be displayed as overlaid on the 3D model. A haptic barrier and a hard barrier may be defined for different types of tissues and feedbacks may be associated with the haptic barrier and the hard barrier. Position of a surgical tool of a robotic surgical system may be monitored in real-time during a surgical procedure. Movement of the surgical tool into one of the haptic barrier and the hard barrier may be detected and a suitable feedback may be provided, based on the movement.
