Anesthesiology is the medical specialty concerned with the total perioperative
care of patients before, during, and after surgery. It encompasses anesthesia,
intensive care medicine, critical emergency medicine, and pain medicine.
Anesthesiologists are primarily responsible for monitoring the patient’s vital
signs during surgery. In addition to basic measurements such as pulse, blood
pressure, and temperature, they measure the patient’s respiration and make
critical adjustments to the anesthesia while closely communicating with the
surgical team.
Rhode Island Hospital is the state’s largest hospital and its only Level I
trauma center and verified burn center. The principal teaching hospital of The
Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University, the facility provides
comprehensive diagnostic and treatment services as well as expertise in cancer
treatment, cardiology, emergency medicine, neurosciences, orthopedics, and
more.

her internship and residency in internal medicine at St. Vincent’s Hospital in

Center in 1995. Finally, the doctor completed her fellowship in pediatric
