Message From Chair
Welcome to the Department of Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine. Our mission is to educate the next generation of leaders in anesthesiology through the provision of state-of-the-art patient-centered care and the discovery of new knowledge that will shape tomorrow's care. This website is your portal to our department: who we are, what we do, and where we're going. No matter if you are a prospective student, resident, fellow, faculty or patient we trust that the information you seek about us is easily found on these pages. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to better meet your needs. The motto of the University of Rochester - Meliora, aptly describes our department - "Always better".

The Lata U. Sabnis, MD, Anesthesiology Residents Educational Endowment will provide endowed support for the education of anesthesiology residents and fellows including travel to educational meetings and international electives, and to support additional educational initiatives for our trainees that could not be funded otherwise. The chair of the Department of Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine will be responsible for disbursements from this fund. In the event gifts and commitments to the Fund reach or exceed the minimum level to endow a professorship, the Fund may be revised into the Lata U. Sabnis Professorship in Anesthesiology at the discretion of the chair of the Department of Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine in consultation with the dean of the School of Medicine and Dentistry.
