Growing up on a family dairy farm in southern Idaho entailed much hard work, unlike the Napoleon Dynamite extravaganza filmed in my hometown. Our farm silos and sprinkled green fields are the final tetherball scene background. Fortunate to spend many hours aside my father, he shared life's experiences and proper motivations. These raised me up well. Receiving a scholarship to attend Brigham Young University, I completed an honors thesis and cancer research fellowship under Dr. Greg Burton. Mentoring by him, provided a base for critical thinking and many good times fly-fishing at West Yellowstone.
Services
Cardiothoracic anesthesiology is primarily devoted to the preoperative, intra-operative, and postoperative care of patients undergoing cardiothoracic surgery such as, but not limited to, coronary artery bypass surgery, heart valve repair or replacement, aortic dissection repair, aortic aneurysm repair, open thoracotomy, and video-assisted thoracoscopic procedures.
Monitored Anesthesia Care is a type of sedation that is administered through an IV to make a patient sleepy and calm during a procedure. The patient is typically awake, but groggy, and are able to follow instructions as needed. The level of sedation provided with this type of anesthesia can range from light, where the patient just feels very relaxed, to heavy, where the patient is unaware of what is happening and only rouses to significant stimulation.Because the level of sedation varies, the process has an anesthesia professional in constant attendance monitoring the patient's vital signs and maintaining or adjusting the level of sedation as needed.
We are in the business of ensuring our patients have excellent care and recovery. Patients are our top priority. The following information is here to assist you with the financial decisions associated with utilizing our services. Estimates are available if you call prior to the date of surgery. In order to give you the best estimate possible, we will need the CPT-4 code for the surgery being performed and the length of time the surgeon believes the case will take.The estimate given to you will be just that, an estimate.
