We are Anesthesia.
Founded by anesthesia care providers, NorthStar has an in-depth knowledge of this medical specialty and the critical role that it plays in a properly functioning OR/surgical center. We provide academic medical centers with perioperative management tools and scholarly resources to improve patient outcomes, increase financial stewardship and drive research objectives.

We offer a comprehensive suite of solutions.
NorthStar provides solutions that empower academic administrators to achieve the highest levels of operational efficiency. In addition to anesthesia care, we deliver clinical expertise and proven management solutions to empower your academic OR department.

We provide leading resources.
NorthStar’s collaborative relationship with the Private Diagnostic Clinic — an affiliate of the Duke University Department of Anesthesia — offers access to research, fellowships and leadership guidance to promote academic excellence.
