General Info

If you are scheduled for surgery, you may have questions about anesthesia and pain control. Our goal at the Stanford Health Care Preoperative Anesthesia Evaluation Clinic in San Jose is to give you all the information you need to set your mind at ease about the safety of anesthesia and relief of post-surgical discomfort. As national leaders in preoperative anesthesia evaluation, our doctors work with medically complex and/or frail patients that other providers may decline to treat. We work with thousands of patients each year, including many who travel to us from around the country and the world.
