That's a great link. It also references the link I posted from the American College of Vet Anesthesiology and Analgesia. It's awesome you have that access. The specialists I use have a vet who is the head of the anesthesia team and the techs are licensed and certified; but I don't believe they have anyone boarded. That department also handles pain management.
They do have boarded anesthesiologists at Texas A&M .. I have gone there but it is quite a drive for me and I love where I go in Houston and trust them.
