All attending anesthesiologists at Phoenix Children’s specialize in pediatrics. This means they have received additional training beyond residency to specialize in the care of infants and children. Many are also trained in pain medicine and pediatric critical care.
Pediatric anesthesia fellows are physician anesthesiologists who completed their residencies and are receiving advanced training in pediatric anesthesiology. Resident anesthesiologists from the University of Arizona and Mayo Clinic spend several months at Phoenix Children’s under the supervision of our faculty. Residents are physicians who are pursuing additional training.
Rounding out our team is a group of nurse practitioners and psychologists who work on our acute and chronic pain services.
