For Patients

  • Physician-Administered Hospital Level Anesthesia: Every anesthetic is personally administered by Ken Hine, a board-certified anesthesiologist (MD) with extensive hospital-based training in advanced airway management, pharmacology, and perioperative medicine. He adheres to the same safety standards used in hospitals.

  • Smooth, Needle-Free Induction: Patients drift comfortably to sleep after only a few breaths of anesthetic gas in a carefully monitored setting — without the need for an IV while awake.

  • Rapid, Seamless Onset: The anesthetic takes effect within seconds, allowing for a calm and efficient transition to sleep with minimal stress or discomfort.

  • Secured Airway Protection: A protected airway using an endotracheal tube or laryngeal mask airway supports continuous breathing and significantly reduces the risk of aspiration during surgery.

  • Comfort-Optimized Anesthetic Technique: A carefully selected combination of anesthetic medications is used to minimize pain, reduce nausea, and promote a smoother, more comfortable recovery experience.

  • Deep, Reliable General Anesthesia: A balanced anesthetic approach provides consistent depth of anesthesia, preventing awareness or movement and allowing optimal surgical conditions.

For Dentists & Oral Surgeons

  • True general anesthesia (not sedation/MAC): Stable, controlled, immobile operating conditions

  • Fully self-contained anesthesia system: I provide all equipment, medications, airway devices, and monitors
    Only requirements: standard power outlet, brief assistance at induction and emergence. Oxygen is appreciated but I carry my own tanks if none available.

  • Advanced airway management: Airway always managed with flexible LMA or nasal RAE tube

  • Hospital-grade monitoring & safety standards: Continuous SpO₂, ETCO₂, EKG, NIBP, and temperature monitoring for every case. SCDs for DVT prophylaxis on cases >1 hour in appropriate patients.

  • High-level infection control: Structured disinfection protocols aligned with hospital-level practices.
