Candice K. Morrissey, MD, MSPH

Languages spoken: English

  • I am a board certified anesthesiologist with specialty board certification in cardiothoracic anesthesiology and a level three certified echocardiographer. In the Department of Anesthesiology I am a member of the Cardiac Anesthesia, Perioperative Echo, Preoperative Clinic and Obstetric Anesthesia teams. My overarching goal is to transform perioperative cardiovascular medicine by advancing the practice of cardiovascular anesthesia and by educating the next generation of physicians. The four pillars of my academic career are: 1) advancing cardiac anesthesiology through applied excellence in perioperative echocardiography and continuous quality improvement, 2) innovating and ensuring excellence in the education and application of perioperative echocardiography, 3) training the next generation in patient safety and quality improvement (PS and QI) and applying this to patients, and 4) improving our approach to pregnant patients with complex cardiac disease, 5) increasing safe anesthesia practices in the global surgery.
