I find that most of my patients are more worried about anesthesia than they are about the surgery (this may be my surgeon's view of the world). Anesthesia is actually very safe but it is important to have a team that you trust.
In this episode, I talk with Dr. Danielle Doyle, a double board-certified anesthesiologist and pain doctor with experience as an award-winning professor and Washingtonian top doctor. She has spent her career administering and teaching anesthesia at tertiary care centers and level one trauma centers, providing diligent and compassionate anesthesia care for critically ill adult patients. She is a trailblazer in the field of ketamine care and chronic pain, having directed the George Washington University Pain Center and ketamine infusion program, providing care to thousands of patients. She is currently the CEO of Cultured Therapeutics. She has been widely published.
We discuss the safety of anesthesia and how common memory loss is after anesthesia (spoiler: it is not). We talk about how to manage the anxiety around anesthesia with medication but also by trust-building, expectation setting and education. We talk about managing the nausea that women commonly get after surgery with hydration before surgery, medications, and avoiding certain types of anesthetics. We talk about managing postoperative pain with preemptively treating pain, proper positioning, educating, and medications.
