Anesthesiologists are perioperative physicians ("peri-" meaning "all-around") who provide medical care to patients before, during, and after surgical procedures. Anesthesiologists are responsible for delivering (or ensuring the delivery of) anesthesia safely to patients in virtually all health care settings, including all major R medical and tertiary care facilities. This includes a preoperative medical evaluation of each patient before surgery, consultation with the surgical team, creating a plan for the anesthesia tailored to each individual patient, airway management, intraoperative life support and provision of pain control, intraoperative diagnostic stabilization, and proper post-operative management of patients. Preparation of patients for emergency surgery are mandatory, essential, and critical skills that anesthesiologists have been trained to employ. Because anesthesiologists are physicians, in contrast to other anesthesia providers, they are able to utilize their extensive knowledge of human physiology and diseases to guide their decision making.

As perioperative physicians, anesthesiologists also work in Intensive Care Units (ICUs), Post-Anesthesia Care Units (PACUs), Pain Clinics, Infusion Centers, and Ambulatory Surgical Centers. In recent years, a subspecialty has evolved. Some anesthesiologists pursue additional training in control of Chronic Pain and are certified as Pain Management specialists.
