Program Details
An anesthesiologist is a medical practitioner who specializes in anesthesiology. They work together with other medical professionals like doctors, surgeons, and nurses. To become an anesthesiologist, you need to have a degree in Doctor of Medicine (MD) or Doctor Osteopathic Medicine (DO). Just like other medical practitioners, an anesthesiologist needs to study for four years in medical school before they start specializing in their field. Anesthesiologists undergo training in anesthetics and other areas associated with anesthesia, like physiology and pharmacology.
