<\/p>\n

The Division of General Anesthesia provides comprehensive perioperative care across a wide range of surgical specialties at UNC Hospitals. We have a collaborative, patient-centered approach to patient care and integrate our specialists to provide safe, high-quality anesthesia services to patients. As part of an academic medical center, our division plays a significant role in resident and medical student education in both clinical and classroom settings. Faculty members are engaged in teaching, quality improvement initiatives, and many administrative roles within the department and hospital.<\/p>\n

Under the leadership of Division Chief\u00a0Sally Stander, MD<\/strong><\/a>, the General Anesthesia division works extensively with patients undergoing a wide range of routine and complex procedures ranging from general, orthopedic, trauma and ENT surgery to vascular and surgical oncology surgery.\u00a0Off-site work in other hospital departments includes work with ophthalmological, radiological, gastroenterological, and pediatric patients.<\/p>\n

The generalist group covers the in-house, on-call duties at night and during weekends, and is supplemented by the immediate availability of specialists as needed.\u00a0 Our peri-operative procedural care locations include\u00a0UNC Medical Center<\/a>,\u00a0UNC Hospitals Hillsborough campus<\/a>, and NC Panther Creek Surgery Center<\/a>.<\/p>\n
