How many anesthesiologists have lost jobs to a CRNA? There is no replacement happening. This isn’t your first comment belittling CRNAs.

Full stop? I’d say some of it has to do with the fact that there are far too many surgeries for only anesthesiologists to be in the OR. It’s not like any of them are struggling to find work because CRNAs are taking their jobs. What should the alternative be? Overworking anesthesiologists to the point where they make even more mistakes? Most people don’t have time to wait for an anesthesiologist to be able to do the surgery. And if they do that time is now allocated solely to them instead of the possibility of 4 operations happening at once. Can you imagine the backlog if each anesthesiologist had to do 4 individual procedures? People would die waiting when they could have had just as safe a procedure with a CRNA.

You do not know what you’re talking about. New anesthesiologists are not having trouble finding jobs
