pain management

Dr. Sudhir Rao attended St. George's University School of Medicine.

"I sought treatment from Dr. Rao for debilitating back and leg pain after receiving a referral from a trusted medical professional. I fell two stories to the ground resulting in clean breaks of both transverse processes of the S-1. Having a rather high threshold for pain I didn't realize the extent of the damage until seven years later. After two major surgeries, countless procedures, and a spinal cord implant, I consulted with Dr. Rao. He took an evaluative approach to determine what procedures might provide relief. His recommendations, including Radiofrequency Ablation, always had favorable results. And he's a genuinely nice person whom I would highly recommend to anyone in need of his services."

What is Anesthesiology?

Anesthesiology is the practice of medicine dealing with the safety and comfort of patients during medical procedures, especially surgery. While many people think of anesthesiology as strictly providing pain control, anesthesiologists are also responsible for monitoring and supporting the health of patients during surgery. By paying attention to a patient's vital signs, an anesthesiologist can both judge how effective the anesthesia is working and intervene if there are problems.

In many cases, an anesthesiologist evaluates patients before surgery, manages their health during surgery, and treats their pain after surgery. They may offer general anesthesia (where a patient is 'put under'), local anesthesia to numb a certain area, or sedatives to calm anxiety before a medical procedure. Some anesthesiologists use their training in pain relief to help patients who suffer from chronic or cancer pain.

During a surgical procedure, anesthesiologists monitor the health of their patients. Among other vital signs, they may be watching:

Heart rate
Blood pressure
Oxygen level
Body temperature
Level of consciousness

If there is a sudden problem during surgery, the anesthesiologist is generally one of the first to know. They act quickly to correct the problem and keep the patient safe through surgery.

More than just the doctor who puts you to sleep, anesthesiologists are highly trained physicians who work to keep you safe and comfortable.
