Who are Anesthesiologist Assistants?
The answer to this question will
soon be common knowledge as medical
schools race to open
Anesthesiologist Assistant programs
and Hospitals throughout the United
States begin recruiting
anesthesiologist assistants
Anesthesiologist Assistants are
highly skilled, Knowledgeable,
Master degree earning members of the
anesthesia care team who with their
impeccable safety records work side
by side with Certified Registered
Nurse Anesthetist's ( CRNA's). The
Anesthesiologist Assistant functions
as a specialty physician assistant
under the direction of a licensed
Anesthesiologist. The
Anesthesiologist Assistant's
responsibilities, in the hospital
setting are identical to the CRNA.

boards of Medicine and Osteopathic
Medicine the doors are now open for
the remaining states to follow suit.
