The awakeMD method
Designed around your procedure. And you.
The word awake reflects an option, not a requirement. Some patients are comfortable with local anesthesia alone, while others benefit from sedation or general anesthesia.

Candidacy assessment
We review your goals and health to determine whether surgery, and an awake approach, is appropriate.
02
Procedure discussion
Options, alternatives, risks and recovery, explained plainly.
03
Anesthetic review
Your preference is central. The anesthesiologist confirms what is safe for you.
04
Perioperative care
An anesthesiologist is present throughout your procedure and adjusts care as needed.
05
Monitored recovery
Observation and clear discharge instructions.
06
