Department of Anesthesiology
The members of the Department of Anesthesiology at The University of Tennessee Graduate School of Medicine in Knoxville work together for a single purpose: to provide the best possible perioperative care for our patients. Our anesthesia care teams provide services for almost 22,000 surgical procedures in our operating rooms. In addition, we provide medical management for literally thousands of other patients in our intensive care units and satellite anesthetizing locations such as the obstetrical suites, the gastroenterology outpatient center, radiology department and the University of Tennessee Ambulatory Surgical Center.
In addition to providing the highest standard of anesthetic care for our patients, the Department of Anesthesiology is committed to the education of resident physicians, medical students and nurse anesthetists in the specialty of anesthesiology. We appreciate your interest in our website and encourage you to explore it at your leisure. Please contact us if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Jerry L. Epps, MD
Chairman
