Scott Stewart, MD, chief of anesthesiology at Brockton, Mass.-based Good Samaritan Medical Center, and his certified registered nurse anesthetist Elizabeth Brady both plan to retire this year, according to a Jan. 25 report from The Enterprise.
The duo have spent 34 years working side by side, performing anesthesia on more than 100,000 people, according to an estimate from hospital President Matthew Hesketh.
They have performed procedures together since the '90s, teaching generations of new CRNAs and anesthesiologists. The pair even rang in a new century together, on call as the calendar flipped from 1999 to 2000.
Each year, Good Samaritan administers anesthesia services to 18,000 patients.
