We are committed to the highest standards in the Medical Practice of Anesthesiology.
Our group currently consists of 3 Anesthesiologists that provides all adult anesthesia services at Mayaguez Medical Center, including providing 24/7 call coverage to the operating rooms. Our group takes care of approximately 13,000 patients annually.
Anesthesia Services
There are many types of anesthesia available to help make patients comfortable during surgery or a medical procedure. Because each person is unique, your anesthesiologist, in consultation with you, will individually tailor the treatment approach for your specific needs. Factors affecting the particular technique or approach include the type of surgery/procedure being performed, the patient’s age, physical status, lab results and medical history as well as the requirements of the surgeon.
