Welcome to the Department of Anaesthesia, John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford.
We are a group of over 100 consultant anaesthetists providing anaesthesia, pain and critical care services in the Trust.
Our clinical work includes anaesthetic cover for all operating theatres throughout the Trust, maternity services and a variety of other wards and areas. We provide acute and chronic pain services across all three hospital sites, and our intensivists provide critical care in five intensive care units.
As the base hospital for the Oxford Deanery we offer over 80 specialty trainees per year training from basic up to specialist fellowship level. Many members of the department are leaders in clinical and laboratory research in association with the University of Oxford.
