The Department of Anesthesiology at Mayo Clinic is a highly integrated, collaborative group of adult and pediatric anesthesiologists. The department comprises more than 90 staff doctors, 60 residents, 200 nurse anesthetists and 150 respiratory therapists, who are committed to providing the best possible care to adult and pediatric patients requiring anesthesia and intensive care. Members of the department also conduct basic and clinical research and teach postgraduate and continuing education programs.
Mayo Clinic anesthesiologists supervise many critical care cases each year. This large number of cases, integrated with ongoing research and education, results in wide-ranging expertise in the anesthetic management of patients of all ages.
The field of anesthesia changes continually with the introduction of new drugs, equipment and surgical and radiological interventions. Department members are organized into subspecialty groups, each focusing on a segment of anesthesiology. Their expertise is a resource for everyone, enabling the department to stay at the forefront of the specialty.
