Delivering Exceptional Care in Anesthesia, Critical Care, and Pain Management.
Physician Specialists in Anesthesia was founded in 1979 by Dr. Stan Mogelnicki and Dr. Donn Chambers when Saint Joseph's Hospital of Atlanta moved from its historic site in downtown Atlanta to the new location in suburban northern Atlanta. Drs. Mogelnicki and Chambers assembled a small group of talented cardiovascular anesthesiologists which became the nucleus of the present-day group.
PSA has enjoyed a steady increase in the size and diversity of its physician staff. Owing to its primary practice location at Saint Joseph's Hospital, the group maintains as its primary areas of expertise the fields of cardiovascular and thoracic anesthesia with emphasis on invasive hemodynamic monitoring and perioperative echocardiography. Other areas of special expertise include cardiac transplantation, critical care medicine, and anesthesia for specialty surgery (general, orthopaedic, plastic surgery, surgical oncology, otolaryngology, and neurosurgery).
PSA has always enjoyed a strong local reputation in acute, chronic, and cancer pain management, as well as in interventional pain management including radio frequency ablation, spinal cord stimulation, intradiscal electrothermal therapy (IDET), implanted epidural & intrathecal drug delivery systems.
We have broadened our expertise over the past decade to include outpatient anesthesia and the management of ambulatory surgery center anesthesia departments. Through the use of optimum staffing models, continuous quality improvement, best practices, and a strong cost containment culture, PSA has helped organizations provide the highest quality ambulatory surgical product, while being fiscally responsible.
