At Chapel Hill Oral Surgery, nothing matters more to us than the safety of our patients. That is why we embrace a unique and rigorous approach to anesthesia care. For each procedure requiring general or IV sedation, we have a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) and three to four trained surgical assistants working in tandem with Dr. Hill to deliver the best possible surgical outcome. This anesthesia care model allows us to promote a safe and successful patient experience.

She has developed and taught classes for the treatment of high-risk populations and has volunteered as an instructor and a provider of anesthesia services during medical mission trips to Haiti and Uganda.
