Reliable information communicated between doctors and patients, and between doctors and other members of the care team, is essential in any setting. Unfortunately, medical and surgical procedures expose you to hospitals and medical professionals who don't know you and your medical problems like your regular doctor does.

For patients, fear and ignorance about the effects of anesthesia can makea trip to the operating room an even more stressful experience.

Medical care is often so complex that coordination is difficult. The pressure to do things efficiently also creates the potential for mistakes. One example is when anesthesiologists meet their patients only a few minutes before "going under".

SurgiPrep was created by an anesthesiologist facing these problems, and realizing there are opportunities to make care safer and also more compassionate. Happily, our approach makes life easier for anesthesiologists too.
