Anesthesiology

Riley Hospital for Children at Indiana University Health is home to the largest group of pediatric anesthesiologists in Indiana. All of our physicians have advanced training in pediatric anesthesia and provide comprehensive anesthetic care for children of all ages. In addition to providing anesthetic care for children undergoing surgery in the operating rooms, our doctors care for children undergoing a wide variety of diagnostic and interventional services throughout the hospital including the MRI suites, cardiac catheterization labs, radiation therapy, interventional radiology, nuclear medicine and X-ray/CT scan areas. We work closely with the surgeouns, pediatricians, radiologists and intensivists, throughout the hospital to provide comprehensive care for our patients.

Our pediatric anesthesiologists at Riley Hospital for Children also have a special emphasis on pain management. Physicians are dedicated to treating children with acute and chronic pain as part of the Multidisciplinary Pain Clinic and the Acute Pain Service.
