An Anesthesiologist is trained to provide pain relief and maintenance or restoration of a stable condition during and immediately following an operation or an obstetric or diagnostic procedure. The Anesthesiologist assesses the risk of the patient undergoing surgery and optimizes the patient’s condition prior to, during and after surgery. In addition to these management responsibilities, the Anesthesiologist provides medical management and consultation in pain management and critical care medicine.
