What an anesthesiologist does
Watching over you, every step
Anesthesia care isn’t a single moment — it’s continuous attention from the first consultation through your recovery.
A calm, expert presence
Safety you can rest on
For a patient facing surgery, the anesthesiologist is the physician who makes it possible to undergo a procedure safely and without pain — and who stays vigilant the entire time. Dr. Elrefai brings more than two decades of that expertise to every case.
He is board certified by the American Board of Anesthesiology in both anesthesiology and pediatric anesthesiology, giving children and adults alike a physician who tailors care to their needs and puts safety first.
