Samuel Seelig (Anesthesiologist, Los Angeles, California) gives expert video advice on: What is an 'anesthesiologist'?; What happens immediately after surgery? and more...

A board certified anesthesiologist is an anesthesiologist that has finished his training and taken a written exam first, and then followed that with an oral exam which is two days long, and he obtains boards in his specialty. That can be in anesthesiology itself, or you can obtain specialty boards in pain management and/or addiction medicine as well.
