Obstetric Anesthesia
Our anesthesiologists provide labor epidurals and anesthesia for cesarean delivery around the clock, helping you stay comfortable and safe during childbirth.
Labor epidurals
An epidural is the most common and effective way to manage labor pain. A physician anesthesiologist places it carefully, and the level of relief can be adjusted as your labor progresses, while you remain awake and alert to meet your baby.
Cesarean & other care
For a planned or unplanned cesarean, our team provides spinal or epidural anesthesia so you can be awake for the birth when appropriate, with general anesthesia available if needed. We also care for higher-risk pregnancies in coordination with your OB team.
Around-the-clock coverage
Babies arrive on their own schedule, so our anesthesiologists provide 24/7 obstetric coverage at the facilities we serve. Your team will discuss your options and answer your questions before delivery.
