Our Anesthesiology Department serves the educational needs for five states: Washington, Wyoming, Alaska, Montana and Idaho. Our comprehensive training is provided by a superb faculty who are nationally recognized experts in all clinical subsets of the practice of anesthesiology.
The University of Washington, founded in 1861, is located in Seattle, on the shores of Lake Washington. The UW School of Medicine has an outstanding national reputation for teaching, clinical service and research. Likewise, our department is ranked among the leading academic departments in the country. We strive to provide excellent patient care, to train anesthesiologists and to improve anesthesia care and teaching through clinical and laboratory research; an ancillary goal is to train anesthesiologists for academic careers.
The Department has extensive grant-supported basic and clinical research programs and many externally funded grants.
