Regional Anesthesia Fellowship
When training in our regional anesthesia suite, the fellow will have no operating room responsibilities. As a junior staff member, the fellow will perform solo cases and supervise residents and CRNAs.
Facilities and staff
The regional anesthesia suite is a dedicated unit adjacent to the operating theatre. We have five fully-equipped nerve block rooms and the latest in high-resolution ultrasound and nerve stimulator technology. The fellow will be responsible for performing and supervising both peripheral and neuraxial blocks. Currently, we are averaging more than 150 peripheral nerve blocks per month.
The DHMC Anesthesiology Department consists of 35 OR anesthesiologists and more than 45 total faculty including Pain Management, Critical Care, and Palliative Care, 24 residents, eight fellows, and 23 CRNAs.
Research
Our main area of research interest is the role of ultrasound in nerve localization and novel intrathecal catheters. The fellow will have the opportunity to participate in various ongoing clinical projects.
About us
Patient care, research, and education are the long-standing traditions of DHMC. Underlying these traditions are our core values of respect, honesty, integrity, professionalism, and responsibility. Our clinical practice combines state-of-the-art care with clinical compassion.
Our vision of 21st-century medicine has its roots in more than 200 years of service: Dartmouth Medical School was founded in 1797 and is the fourth-oldest medical school in the United States. Mary Hitchcock Memorial Hospital was founded in 1893 to serve regional needs. The Dartmouth-Hitchcock Clinic was founded in 1927 and is today the nation's third-largest group practice.
