"It's freezing in here!"

If you've ever walked into an Operating Room, you know the feeling. But there is a safety reason for the chill. The surgical team wears heavy, sterile gowns and works under intense lights—cooler air prevents overheating and protects the sterile field.

But don't worry: your Nurse Anesthesiologist ensures you never feel the cold. We utilize active warming technology—like forced-air blankets and warmed IV fluids—to create a cozy "micro-climate" just for you. We keep the room cool for safety, but we keep you warm for recovery.

When your Nurse Anesthesiologist asks about your medication list, be sure to mention vitamins and herbal supplements like Garlic, Ginkgo, or Ginseng. While natural, these can sometimes increase bleeding risks or interact with anesthesia medications. Your safety is in the details—help us keep you safe by sharing your full health history.

It’s peak ice fishing season in Maine! From Moosehead Lake to Sebago, our communities are embracing the cold. Many of our Nurse Anesthesiologists love unwinding on the frozen water during their time off. It’s just one of the unique ways we enjoy life in the Pine Tree State. Here are some pictures from a Family Ice Fishing Day we organized in the past! Stay warm out there!

Welcome Austin! 🎉

True North Anesthesia is excited to welcome Austin Raines, CRNA, DNAP, as our newest full-time team member!

Austin recently completed his Doctorate of Nurse Anesthesia Practice at Independence Health School of Anesthesia in Pennsylvania, graduating with an outstanding academic record. During his clinical training, he gained extensive experience across Level I trauma centers, academic medical centers, community hospitals, and pediatric facilities, building a strong and well-rounded clinical foundation.

Prior to anesthesia school, Austin spent four years as a MICU nurse at UPMC Presbyterian, where he developed a passion for critical care and collaborative, patient-centered practice. Austin has already begun settling into the Bangor area and is currently living in Brewer with his fiancée, Erika, while they search for their forever home. We are thrilled to have Austin join the True North family and look forward to the energy, dedication, and compassion he brings to our team!
