Anesthesia may be provided by a combination of board-certified physicians and certified registered nurse anesthetists (CRNA/APN).
The types of anesthesia provided range from sedation, regional, and general anesthesia.
Many patients are apprehensive about anesthesia and surgery. If you are well informed, you will be better prepared and more relaxed. Talk with your anesthesiologist and ask questions. Your anesthesiologist is your advocate and is experienced in making your surgery and recovery as safe and comfortable as possible.
