Our Practice

ECAA Anesthesia Specialists is one of the Southeast’s largest private anesthesiology practices. The practice has a long history of providing quality medical care and service for over 42 years. Currently 79 anesthesiologists, and over 74 senior CRNA/AAs work for ECAA, in the two regions of North Carolina and Southeastern Virginia.

An anesthesiologist is a physician practicing anesthesiology — a medical subspecialty. The anesthesia care team, just like in all other areas of medicine, consists of a physician and an anesthetist working together. The anesthetist is either a certified registered nurse anesthetist (CRNA), or an Anesthesiologist Assistant (AA). A member of the anesthesia care team (either the anesthesiologist, anesthetist, or both), will be with you continuously throughout your procedure. Your anesthesiologist is present with an anesthetist during the start of the anesthetic, monitors the progress of your case, and is always immediately available for your care during the course of surgery and during the recovery period. This team approach ensures that you will have multiple members of a team with advanced, overlapping, and complementary skills present and immediately available during your anesthetic care.

Our mission is to provide the highest quality specialty and subspecialty anesthesia care to our patients.
