Anesthesiology
Penn Highlands Anesthesiology
Anesthesiology is a medical practice that specializes in the administration of anesthesia designed to provide pain relief, and to maintain or restore patients to a stable condition during and immediately following a surgical or diagnostic procedure. At Penn Highlands Healthcare, our trained anesthesiologists assess the risk of patients undergoing a surgical procedure, and then work to optimize their condition throughout the surgical process.
During any situation when a patient is in need of pain management or relief, such as general anesthesia for a patient undergoing surgery or an epidural for a patient in labor, the highly qualified anesthesiologists at Penn Highlands Healthcare provide compassionate and effective care.
