Services

Our mission is to enhance patient safety & comfort. We offer:

  • Monitoring Services
    • Our main focus during surgery is to keep you safe. We will monitor your blood pressure, heart rate, body temperature, EKG, Carbon Dioxide and Oxygen levels throughout your surgical procedure. As medical doctors, your anesthesiologist is uniquely qualified to treat not only medical problems related to surgery itself, but also your chronic conditions that may need special attention during your procedure.
  • Post Operatively Services
    • In addition to relief of pain during the surgical procedure, it is equally important for your comfort and well being to receive adequate pain relief post operatively. Our anesthesiologists may prescribe specific pain medication or perform specialized procedures to maximize your comfort.
  • Emergency Services
    • In the rare and unlikely event that there is a change in your condition during surgery requiring additional resources, our physicians are trained in the latest methods of Advanced Cardiac Life support (ACLS), Basic Life Support (BLS), and Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS). We are re-certified in these techniques and procedures every two years. All of the facilities we service are equipped with life support equipment including, but not limited to, defibrillators, AED devices, emergency medications and airway equipment. We also ensure that all of our facilities have emergency backup plans with local EMS/EMT and ambulance services for rapid transport of patients to the local hospital.
