anesthesiaIndividual Anesthesia Consultations
Certified registered nurse anesthetists administer the anesthetic required for surgery. Prior to surgery, the anesthetist meets with patients to determine the best anesthetic, to explain how the various anesthetics work, and to answer any questions the patient has.

During the surgical procedure, the anesthetist stays with the patient monitoring every important function, monitoring the patient, and modifying the anesthetic, if needed, to ensure maximum safety and comfort.
