You Deserve to Meet Your
Anesthesiologist Before
the Day of Surgery.
A private consultation where every question you typed at 2 a.m. gets a direct, unhurried answer from the physician who will be in that OR with you.
What happens at every stage.
No unknowns.
Your Consultation — A Real Conversation
The fear: "I don't know who is putting me to sleep."
You meet Dr. Osei-Bonsu in a quiet room — no rushing, no pager interruptions. She reviews your full medical history, every medication you take, and the specific anesthetic plan she has designed for your procedure.
Most patients spend 45–60 minutes here. You leave with a written summary of your anesthetic plan, your physician's direct contact number, and, typically, the ability to sleep that night.
Pre-surgery consultation suite — 45–60 min, no interruptions
Every Drug. Every Monitor. Explained.
The fear: "What exactly will they give me? What if I react?"
Dr. Osei-Bonsu walks you through the exact medications in your anesthetic plan — induction agents, maintenance drugs, reversal agents, and anti-nausea protocols. Allergy flags are reviewed and documented.
If you have had a prior bad reaction to anesthesia, a family history of malignant hyperthermia, or severe PONV, these are not footnotes here — they are the entire conversation.
Drug review & allergy protocol — documented, personalized
A Familiar Face in the OR
The fear: "What if the person I talked to isn't actually there?"
Dr. Osei-Bonsu is your anesthesiologist — not a rotation assignment. She is in that OR for your case. She greets you in pre-op, confirms your plan, and is with you from the moment you count back from ten.
No handoffs to residents you have never met. No surprises about the plan. The physician who reviewed your history is the physician managing your airway.
Your named anesthesiologist — present, prepared, accountable
Recovery Check-In — After the Room
The fear: "What if I wake up confused and no one explains what's happening?"
Dr. Osei-Bonsu checks in with you in the recovery room and again by phone within 24 hours. Nausea, pain, confusion, or questions about what happened in the OR — addressed directly, by name.
Patients who have a post-op check-in with their anesthesiologist report significantly lower anxiety about future procedures. We believe that relationship does not end when you leave the OR.

Direct physician call after every procedure
What changes when you actually know your anesthesiologist.
These are not marketing statements. These are the things patients say after their procedures.
I had spent three weeks reading horror stories about anesthesia awareness online. After one hour with Dr. Osei-Bonsu, I understood exactly what was happening, why, and what she would do if anything deviated. I slept the night before my hip replacement for the first time in months.
My daughter is six. I needed to know that whoever put her under had actually read her chart, knew about her penicillin allergy, and understood that she is terrified of needles. Dr. Osei-Bonsu called us the evening before. She remembered every detail we had discussed two weeks earlier.
I've referred twelve patients to Dr. Osei-Bonsu this year. When a surgeon can tell a patient 'you will meet your anesthesiologist by name before you arrive,' the pre-op anxiety drops visibly. My patients come into the OR calmer, which makes my job better.
Take the first step. Meet your anesthesiologist.
No commitment to a specific procedure. Just a conversation that answers your questions before the day you need those answers most.
