Welcome From the Program Director
The Guthrie Robert Packer Hospital Anesthesiology Residency Program reflects our mission: “Guthrie works with the communities we serve to help each person attain optimal, life-long health and well-being. We will do so by providing integrated, clinically-advanced services that prevent, 诊断, 治疗疾病, within an environment of compassion, 学习, 和发现.”
The Guthrie Clinic originated in 1910 when Dr. Donald Guthrie arrived after training with the Mayo brothers. Guthrie Robert Packer Hospital is a rural, tertiary care center with a full spectrum of surgery specialties, giving residents broad exposure to complex and diverse cases. The hospital maintains a Level I trauma center, a robust musculoskeletal service line with subspecialty orthopedic surgeons, and a cardiovascular center with hybrid rooms for cardiac surgery, 心脏病学, 血管手术. Urology, Gynecology, and General Surgery all perform robotic cases. 除了, the Department of Anesthesiology supports non-surgical proceduralists in Gastroenterology, 肺药, and Interventional Radiology. The hospital also provides the only labor and delivery unit in the county.
Teaching residents is a high priority for our anesthesiology faculty. Because we are a small community, our department maintains a close professional and personal relationship. We display the Guthrie values of patient-centeredness, teamwork, and excellence daily. 居民 receive solid training in all traditional areas of anesthesia with subspecialty anesthesiology providers in cardiac, 神经, 产科, 儿科, 入院前服务, 疼痛管理, 以及重症监护. The program includes weekly didactic sessions. Guthrie also has a teaching affiliation agreement with the Geisinger Commonwealth School of Medicine. This affiliation provides our residents with an academic appointment during their residency.
Guthrie offers our residents a unique combination of medical technology, 专业知识, and individual attention. Clinical experience at Guthrie is considerably more extensive than in most rural hospitals. We are proud that depth, as well as a breadth of experience, are the hallmarks of Guthrie Anesthesiology. Together we embrace our vision statement:
Improving Health through Clinical 卓越 and 同情; Every Patient. 每一次.
