Duke Raleigh Hospital's anesthesiologists are a part of Critical Health Systems, a leading anesthesiology practice that provides a full range of anesthesia, critical care medicine and pain relief services at Duke Raleigh Hospital. 

We pay particular attention to meeting the individual needs of each patient that we work with. This includes everything from preoperative consultation and ongoing contact with surgeons to closely monitoring procedures and ensuring postoperative pain relief.

For patients with complex medical histories, your surgeon may arrange for a consultation with one of our anesthesiologists several days prior to your operation.  These consultations take place in the Duke Raleigh preoperative testing center. 

For many surgical procedures, you will meet with your anesthesiologist and others from the anesthesia care team on the day of your procedure. Your medical history and the anesthetic plan will be discussed, and all of your questions can be answered at that time.
