Dr. Hooshangi has been practicing anesthesia since 1994 and has worked in all subspecialty fields. Her subspecialty is in ambulatory anesthesia with a special interest in regional anesthesia and different types of nerve blocks being performed under ultrasound guidance. Another major area of interest is different airway devices, their usage, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of each device. She has studied a number of these airway devices and has published a review articleon the topic.

Delivering TIVA and using different methods and medications is an attractive area of administering anesthesia to her patients. With growing awareness about importance of pain control, she considers perioperative pain control as one of our important tasks for our patients.

In her daily practice she has always enjoyed training anesthesia assistants and has received multiple awards for training and mentoring anesthesia assistants. As a fulltime staff member, apart from daily clinical duties, Dr. Hooshangi supervises and teaches residents and medical students. Also, as a member of the medical education and research committee of the hospital Dr. Hooshangi helps to ensure that trainees meet Canadian standards.
