Anesthesiology

Anesthesiologists are medical doctors who administer and monitor the use of anesthesia, sedatives and other medications during your surgical or other procedures. Our anesthesiologists are experts in their field whose goal is to maximize patient safety and comfort.

Anesthesia Care We Provide

  • Consultation prior to surgery
  • Delivery of medications for safe, pain-free surgery
  • Monitoring vital signs
  • Postsurgical care as required

Types of Anesthesia Used

  • General anesthesia: Ensures that the patient is completely asleep and unaware of the procedure
  • Moderate sedation: Provides the appropriate medication to have surgery without discomfort, but not in a deep sleep
  • Regional anesthesia: Includes spinal, epidural and regional block anesthesia; only the appropriate area of the body is numbed and the patient is able to communicate during the procedure
