  In addition to a truly superior safety record, SAA physicians and CRNAs also take great pride in caring for our patients’ emotional needs and recognizing that empathy and kindness are very important for patients undergoing the stress of surgery or childbirth.  Patient satisfaction surveys give our clinicians ‘straight A’s’, with over 97% of patients rating the care they received as ‘excellent’, and over 98% reporting that they were treated with courtesy and respect.   In addition to preventing serious complications, SAA physicians and CRNAs also devote a great deal of attention to minimizing relatively minor side effects of anesthesia, and as a result, the rates at which SAA patients have post-operative nausea & vomiting, sore throats or headaches are a small fraction of the national average.
