What is the role of the anesthesiologist?
The anesthesiologist is a vital member of your surgical team. Prior to surgery we carefully evaluate your medical condition and formulate a specific anesthetic plan. Along with you and your surgeon, we will help you choose the best anesthetic for you. Meticulous assessment continues throughout your surgery as your vital functions and level of anesthesia are closely monitored to ensure your safety. Additionally we are responsible for the diagnosis and treatment of medical problems that may arise during surgery and in the immediate post operative period.
