(Example Description)
As a board certified reproductive endocrinologist, specializing in the field of Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART), it has been my life’s work to help build families. Many of my patients come to me with little hope and often misdiagnosis’. I have been influential in the births of more than 6000 IVF babies, and with 20 plus years of experience, many of my findings have been incorporated into treatment protocols from around the world.
In this blog I hope to educate hopeful mothers on the latest advances in reproductive medicine and infertility. I will also cover case studies. Feel free to comment on my posts and I will always do my best to answer all of your questions.

Procedural anesthesia is the application of anesthetic techniques to allow a procedure to take place. This often is a lighter plane of anesthesia than the depth required for surgical cases. With this in mind, we often think of procedural anesthesia more in terms of procedural SEDATION, as that is a more accurate descriptor. This may be sedation for minor surgical procedures on an extremity, it could be for something a bit more stimulating such as endoscopies (colonoscopy, EGD), or it could be for reasons requiring an immobile patient such as sedation for MRI. Surgical anesthesia is often a deeper anesthetic technique that more often than not requires instrumentation of the airway and management of respiratory function, while procedural sedation aims to stop short of eliminating respiratory drive.
