St. Luke's Hospital, with more than 2000 patients who go under anaesthesia every month, is classified in one of the most productive health units in Greece. In order to achieve proper levels of anaesthesia, more than 20 anaesthesiologists in 23 modern equipped rooms carefully practice their work.

Good training of anaesthesiologists and modern monitoring machines have contributed to this result. However, our effort does not end with the safeguarding of the patient's safety.
