Dr. Pamela Pappas answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

Anesthesiologist: You could speak with the anesthesiologist who helped you through your surgery. S/he would have been monitoring your status at all times while the surgeon was working on you. You can also get a copy of the or report, which may or may not include this information since it would have been dictated by the surgeon.

Dr Fowler and another doctor agreed
