Dr. Michael Banyas received his medical degree in 1989 from the University of Tennessee in Memphis. The doctor interned at Virginia Mason Hospital in Seattle and completed his residency in Anesthesiology in 1993 at Oregon Health Sciences University. He has been practicing Anesthesiology at Bartlett Regional Hospital since 1996. Dr. Banyas is a board certified Anesthesiologist.
Anesthesiologists provide analgesia while maintaining and supporting vital functions during surgery.
The anesthetic plan is individualized for each patient. We take into consideration the type of surgery, medical history and physical condition of each patient before determining which type of anesthetic will best suit their needs. I try to make each patient's surgery as comfortable as possible. Before coming to Juneau, Dr. Banyas worked at Kadlec Medical Center in Richland, Washington, and at Valley Hospital in Palmer, Alaska. The doctor said he wanted to practice in Juneau from the time he and his wife first vacationed here in 1992.
