Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee signed into law Senate Bill 1720/House Bill 2451, a vital patient protection measure that prevents the misleading use of medical specialty titles, including “anesthesiologist” and “anesthesiology” by unqualified individuals. The American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) and Tennessee Society of Anesthesiologists (TSA) applaud this action, which will protect patients in Tennessee from titles that mispresent a health care professional’s true expertise.

We're very pleased to bring you this new and improved website, complete with TSA member directory, links to state advocacy efforts, and information on upcoming events. Tell us what you think!

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2021 annual Tennessee Society of Anesthesiologists meeting in Nashville, was cancelled.  However, the TSA Board elected to meet in person in February to conduct business affairs and accepted nominations for new board members.  The TSA membership voted via Survey Monkey and information on the newly elected TSA Board members can be found here.
