All About
NAPS
Newcastle Anaesthesia & Perioperative Services (NAPS) was created in 2003 and is currently the largest and longest running group practice of Consultant Anaesthetic Doctors in the Hunter Region.
History and Ethos
NAPS was started in 2003 to help a group of new anaesthetists set up their private practice. We wanted to provide a place where we could consult with our patients, manage our business, and provide employment for skilled local people. Having rooms lets us meet with our patients in a setting that is quieter and more settled than a busy hospital clinic or inpatient bedside.
Between us we have a long experience across all aspects of modern anaesthetic practice. We look after people from the youngest infant to the oldest adult. We work at all the private and public hospitals in the region dealing with both emergency and routine care.
We are involved in teaching and mentoring trainee anaesthetists in the region to help meet the needs of the people who live here and to ensure those needs are met into the future.
We are members of various of the local hospitals Medical Advisory Committees as part of our governance roles.
Our practice is structured with members as owners so that we have a direct say in maintaining a successful business with a healthy and supportive culture.
