| CRNAs provide anesthesia in collaboration with surgeons, anesthesiologists, dentists, podiatrists, and other qualified healthcare professionals. When anesthesia is administered by a nurse anesthetist, it is recognized as the practice of nursing; when administered by an anesthesiologist, it is recognized as the practice of medicine. Regardless of whether their educational background is in nursing or medicine, all anesthesia professionals give anesthesia the same way. |  | Doreen Wieczorek, CRNA Mark Elliott, CRNA Maureen Carney, CRNA Roberto Rivera, CRNA Sally Blake Nelson, CRNA Salvatore Tresca, CRNA Steven Knotts, CRNA |
