“Diversifying anesthetic plans and acute treatment of pain through peripheral nerve blocks is very beneficial to patient care. I find it rewarding to see immediate relief in our patients and identifying the best possible anesthetic management due to age or prior experiences with anesthesia.” – Dr. Wellons
