Department of Anesthesiology

The Department of Anesthesiology is comprised of:

Six full-time Physicians.

Sixteen Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNA). Based on a CRNA model, the program offers great incentive for CRNAs who appreciate a wide scope of practice, autonomy and team work.

Two department physicians specialize in Pediatric Anesthesia offering 24-hour coverage for Pediatric cases.

While currently there is no Anesthesiology Residency Program, Residents of other departments do still complete their Anesthesia rotation in the department. Additionally, program development is underway to allow Senior-year CRNA students to complete rotations at this facility in the near future.
