It can sometimes be quite an adventure finding staff for those 5 PM add-on surgeries. All jokes aside, we do have anesthesiologists available whenever we need them. It is just often confusing around 5 PM whether the on-call team or the day team does the case. #anesthesia #surgeon #workplace #relatable #joke #funny | Nick Pappas, MD

Have you heard of “anesthesia awareness” or “awareness under anesthesia?” This is an extremely rare phenomenon where patients “wake up” during surgery and become aware of their surroundings and other details during their procedure. Rest assured, your anesthesiologist monitors you closely to prevent this from happening. #anesthesiology #crna #medicalfacts | Brian Schmutzler
