Why Empower anesthesiologists

Board-certified for Houston facilities

The highest clinical credential in anesthesia care.

Physician anesthesiologists (MDs and DOs) represent the highest clinical credential in anesthesia care — four years of medical school, a four-year anesthesiology residency, and often additional fellowship training in cardiac, pediatric, regional, or pain-management subspecialties. Empower Anesthesia recruits and retains anesthesiologists who meet this standard, and who align with our culture of accountability, performance, and genuine patient care.

Anesthesiologist services we provide

General anesthesia for all surgical specialties
Regional and neuraxial anesthesia (spinals, epidurals, nerve blocks)
Monitored anesthesia care (MAC) and procedural sedation
Pre-operative anesthesia consultations and risk assessments
Post-operative pain management plans

Subspecialty depth

Integrated with your OR

Empower Anesthesia anesthesiologists don’t just show up. They integrate with your OR culture, your scheduling systems, and your perioperative care protocols — functioning as a true extension of your clinical team, not a contract hire.

FAQ

Anesthesiologist services, answered.

What qualifications do Empower Anesthesia anesthesiologists hold?

All Empower Anesthesia physician anesthesiologists are board-certified by the American Board of Anesthesiology (ABA) or equivalent, hold active Texas medical licenses, and maintain current DEA registrations. Many hold additional subspecialty certifications and fellowship training credentials.

Do your anesthesiologists supervise CRNAs?

Yes, where applicable and appropriate to your facility’s care model. Empower Anesthesia deploys both anesthesiologists and CRNAs, and our MDs are experienced in physician-led anesthesia care team (ACT) models that optimize efficiency without compromising oversight.

What surgical specialties do your anesthesiologists cover?

Our providers cover general surgery, orthopedics, spine, ENT, gynecology, urology, plastic surgery, gastroenterology (endoscopy), ophthalmology, and more. For subspecialty cases — cardiac, pediatric, obstetric — we have providers with specific fellowship training in those areas.

How does Empower Anesthesia ensure clinical quality for its anesthesiologists?

We conduct rigorous credentialing before any provider enters a facility, track case outcomes, and conduct regular clinical reviews. Our medical leadership reviews quality indicators and maintains a culture of performance accountability. Good enough is not our standard.

Can Empower Anesthesia provide locum or short-term anesthesiologist coverage?

Yes. We place anesthesiologists in both permanent and locum tenens (temporary) coverage arrangements. This flexibility allows facilities to manage staffing transitions, volume surges, or leave coverage without disrupting OR operations.

What is the difference between an anesthesiologist and an anesthesiologist assistant (CAA)?

An anesthesiologist is a physician (MD/DO). A Certified Anesthesiologist Assistant (CAA) is a graduate-level clinical professional trained to work under physician anesthesiologist supervision. Empower Anesthesia places all credential levels — anesthesiologists, CRNAs, and CAAs — tailored to each facility’s program model and state practice standards.

Do Empower Anesthesia anesthesiologists handle billing independently?

No — and this is a key advantage. Our enterprise billing team handles all anesthesia coding and reimbursement on behalf of our providers, ensuring consistent, accurate claims submission without placing administrative burden on the clinical team. Providers focus on care; billing is handled separately.

How do I request an Empower Anesthesia anesthesiologist for my facility?

Contact our facility services team through the consultation form on our website. We will assess your program needs, review your case volume and OR schedule, and propose the right staffing model and credential mix to match your surgical environment.
