Outpatient General Anesthesia

Dr. Crinzi and his trained staff provide the full service of outpatient anesthesia to assist our patients and provide for patient comfort and safety.  “Team” anesthesia services are provided in an AAAHC certified facility.  Surgery can be performed using 1) local injections or local anesthesia with nitrous oxide.  Outpatient pre-medications as an adjunct may also be used. 2) More frequently, intravenous anesthesia or semi-sleep is used.  In addition, 3) general anesthesia or complete sleep, also given intravenously and can be used where applicable.  Dr. Crinzi also utilizes the services of outpatient general anesthesia when necessary. A separate anesthesiologist is utilized for selected cases and situations.  Anesthesia options for patient comfort and safety will be discussed at your consultation.

If appropriate, we use the services of Dr. Russell Paravecchio. We are proud to have established a professional partnership with Anesthesiology for Outpatients, PC (AFO), and one of the most experienced provider of outpatient anesthesia in the State of Washington.  AFO has provided safe and reliable anesthetics to thousands of patient, mostly children.
