David Eng, M.D.

About Me
I was drawn to the field of anesthesia due to the unique requirement for both critical thinking and hands-on technical skills. I also realized that the OR was my favorite place in the hospital! Due to my interests in imaging and managing complex heart disease, I pursued a specialty experience in anesthesia for heart surgery. It is very satisfying to be in a medical field with so many ongoing advancements in drug therapy, monitoring techniques, and patient safety.
