Anesthesiology

At Fletcher Allen, we provide state-of-the-art anesthetic care for patients before, during and after surgery – working to keep you as comfortable as possible through every phase of your care.

Our anesthesiologists, certified nurse-anesthetists and anesthesiology assistants have advanced training in their specialties and provide one-on-one care tailored to your specific needs and concerns.

At Fletcher Allen, we offer the full spectrum of anesthesiology services from simple sedations for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures to sophisticated anesthesia for complex surgeries. 

We care for everyone from the tiniest premature infant to patients at the end of life, providing treatments that range from epidurals during childbirth to chronic pain management to supporting and monitoring all vital body functions during general anesthesia.

Post-surgery, we care for patients during recovery and on the intensive care units, and assist with pain management throughout the hospital as needed.

As a university hospital, our services are enhanced by research-based expertise, access to the latest equipment and technology, and the availability of the full scope of anesthetic drugs in use today. Our goal is to make sure all surgery patients have a safe and comfortable experience.
