GENERAL INFORMATION:
YOU AND YOUR ANAESTHETIC
An operation involves many highly specialized people... Apart from the nursing and technical staff, there are a number of specialist physicians who may operate or assist, depending on the nature of the surgical procedure that you are about to undergo.
We hope that the following pages will help answer any questions that you may have and alleviate any fears. We have tried, as far as possible, to write this section in "layman's terms". Please remember that these are only generalized guidelines. If any of your questions still go unanswered, please feel free to discuss them with your attending Anaesthesiologist.
