Your Safety and Comfort is Our Top Priority
Dr Satterfield and her team will work with you to find the best anesthesia option to optimize your procedure and make it the most comfortable experience possible from start to finish.
Furthermore, Dr. Satterfield enhances the surgical environment with evidence-based distraction techniques like music therapy, vibrational distraction, and guided breathing exercises to ensure patient relaxation alongside standard anesthesia procedures.
Different anesthesia options can be used to perform surgeries customized to your comfort level:
- Local Anesthesia without sedation: In-office procedures numb the surgical area with creams and local injections. Patients may drive themselves home based on a pre-surgery plan.
- Local Anesthesia with Oral Sedation: In-office procedure numbs the area with creams and injections. Oral sedatives provide comfort.
- Local Anesthesia with IV Sedation: The procedures in the operating room with an Anesthesia provider for moderate IV sedation suggested for longer or combined surgeries.
- General Anesthesia: This is an option for highly anxious patients during procedures.
Dr. Satterfield will discuss anesthesia options and recommendations based on the procedure.
