![Almost 10,000 surgeries are performed every year at TPCH but none of these would be possible without a team of highly trained anaesthetists. 💉😴
Dr Andrei who is originally from Russia has spent the last year at TPCH as a Staff Specialist in Anaesthetics.
Ive practiced in Russia, South Africa, now Australia, it’s very interesting to travel through different countries and systems, seeing environments I thought Id never see in my life. I think I became a better anaesthetist due to the [Australian] training, said Dr Andrei.
I prefer to work in orthopaedics and trauma, and this is a smaller hospital which is not as busy as the RBWH for example so its a smaller department and I recognise and get to know people, theres lots of support.
Although I am on general side of anaesthetics, I am attracted to the cardiac specialty and working in the cardiac centre is very interesting, the cardiac team has a lot of experience. 🫀

Theatre preparation starts long before surgery begins! Our team of hardworking anaesthetic technicians help to ensure that all goes smoothly when our patients have gone under. 😴💉
Aleah, Clinical Educator for Anaesthetic Healthcare Practitioners at RBWH explains the key role that her team play inside the operating theatre.
Ah the HPS!
Go Aleah!!
Worked with a lot of Anaesthetic Techs, seen a few lives saved by their assistance, big part of the theatre team.
Still in love with my Anaesthetic Tech since 1994 ♥️. 7GOT PACU RBH. Though Lee is no longer a Tech we love all the memories of that time.
No tech, no surgery, well said Aleah
Very integral role for the anaesthetic team
