If these 5 Minnesota nurse-anesthetists can pass gas as well as they can sing, I want my next surgery in their hospital.

Grand Rounds Hosted Here - February 3, 2009
Grand Rounds is a weekly collection of the best writing in the medical blogosphere. I was delighted to host Volume 5, no. 20 here on February 3rd, 2009.
About
- The Samurai Radiologist
- The Samurai Radiologist has spent more than 20 years as a diagnostic radiologist, most of them professing at various university medical centers. The "samurai" part is a nod to the late, great John Belushi, whose samurai skits on Saturday Night Live featured a samurai with a day job in some other field, such as dry-cleaning or a delicatessen. The plot usually gave him some hilarious job-related excuse to use his sword. Since much of medical imaging (e.g. CT and MR) involves digital "cuts" through the body in various planes, I always hoped to someday see him portray a "samurai radiologist". I guess I'll just have to play that role myself.

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 280 of 280Lol...I find it entertaining that so many people don't understand that these guys are CRNA's, not anesthesiologists. This includes from what I've seen a fair amount of people in the medical field.
CRNA = Advanced nurse specializing in anesthesiology
Anesthesiologist = Physician specializing in anesthesiology
I know this b/c I'm an anesthesiologist :)
I'm a nurse just recovering from a total laproscopic hysterectomy...and this video should be ruled Not Safe for Early Recovery ;-)
ROFLMAbdomenO!
One reason you love these guys and their dynamic personalities is because they are C.R.N.A's or Certified Registerd NURSE ANESTHETIST'S. Way to be guys I'm sure you are amazingly awesome at your anesthesia skills even more so than your singing and performing and that is saying a lot! CRNA's ROCK!!!!!!
Must be a Nitrous Oxide leak somewhere. I laughed my... (fades to sleep)
Heh you fellas, how about coming over and sing to us in Cairns, Queensland. You fellas are bloody beaut, mate!
I'm a pediatric cardiologist. We could use some humor and harmony in the pediatric cardiac OR. Remember cardiologists have rhythm!
Rock on guys!
Absolutely adorable!! These guys can really sing, and are so cute! Love it!!!
I loved it the biggest smile I have had all day. Great job. LOL
I was an Anesthesia gopher ( for DeBakey ) 6 years when a young student in the 60's . Working for the flatulent on his large service I found ALL of them to be very quick w a quip and entertainers at heart , like the above deliciously harmonious be-boppers band . Their other OR job it seemed , was to liven up the conversation when it lagged .Those who have been there will recall hearing more filth spoken well than in any other known location .
Well done fellows . If all else fails quit serenading those sleepy heads , give them a jolt of prostygmin , and slap them around a little .That should wake them up .
I sure wish these guys would come to Canada and start singing in the Waiting Room. I hate sitting there for 4 hours in abject pain on a scale of 10, with nothing to do but wince. These guys would be the best medicine for every one of us. Viva! Anaesthesiologists!
^j^
These guys were terrific -- wish they'd come to the dirty, disorganized hospitals here in New York -- I'm moving!
As a med/surg nurse, I just have to say that these MDs are not only talented, but CUTE! LOL!! You can sing before AND after MY surgeries ANYTIME, Docs! You are all just GREAT! If you are ever in the Fremont, CA area, please drop by and ask for Elaine! I would, also, love to join your group!!
Thanks so much for the great smile/laugh!! U R THE BEST! EMH
This is just the greatest !!
After many many surgeries I
can really appreciate it, and
not only is it hilarious, they
really can sing so well - they
should do lots more for us.
Josephine in Tampa.
That was awesome guys! I am too in the medical field and believe we have the best hospital humor there is. I was laughing so hard. Loved it!
That is hilarious from a pt's point of view, also! ‹(^¿^)›
When I had my shoulder surgery, the heart monitor was dinging, and I said, "What is that?" The anesthesiologist said it was to keep the doc awake. I said, "As long as it doesn't keep me awake!"
The surgeon who just did my cataract surgeries was laid back and a lot of fun, too.
You just can't go wrong with a good sense of humor.
As a patient of many, many surgeries and enough anesthesia to choke a horse, I wish I had had one of you guys to put me down! Maybe you would have said something to me before whacking me out! Ha! Ha! Great song and this patient loves it.
Tell everyone to talk to their patients, please. :)
Wonderfully entertaining...great voice blending...wish I could buy an albun...every bit as good as the Everly Brothers....Thanks..
You look like you had fun too.
Sheba
WOW, those guys are G-R-E-A-T. I will ask my anesthesiologists to sing for me when he is putting me under. FANTASTIC!!!!! I will be sharing.
Just beautiful! You are really talented and having such fun
You nurses have the perfect touch - great song, fun harmony and somebody set you up very well with the mics! I laughed till my face hurt!
I love it! My grandson wants to be an anesthesiologist and now I'll tell him that he needs to practice his singing too, hahaha. This was great!
GREAT Video. I go in for surgery in a few weeks. Not sure I want them to break out in song, but if they are still doing their job, I guess it will be OK. LOL This video sure made me less worried about my anesthesia. (Been under general 14 times in my life already and hope THIS is my last time)
It is quite good but not that fantastic
Merry Christmas everyone
Loved this...wish I could get our doctors to do this!! Well done!!
You guys are totally awesome. Do you travel to different cities? If you don't now, you NEED to because if I need surgery, you have to be there!! Get some more songs together and record them!! I'd buy whatever you recorded!!
I'm going in for an endoscopy and colonoscopy tomorrow, I know my anesthesiologist won't understand when I crack up laughing when I see him coming! This is hilarious!
Wow, I want those guys working on me the next time I have surgery. I love to sing and those guys can realy sing!
From Maine...
GREAT voices and I bet your gases works as well as you sing....
You guys are awesome! What harmony and you're not bad to look at either! Your entire song and act is funny and keeps the viewer wanting to watch.
I would love to speak with one of you about something if you would give me a call sometime today! 828/322-8553 anytime.
Thanks
Beverly Brock
Excellent Guys,
You can give me gas anytime. The most important part of this is simply: YOU GUYS SOUND REALLY GREAT.
New show: Doctors Got Talent
Dan
So adorable, hey you guys sound great! Loved the laugh. Thanks so much!
Really love this! If these guys are singing this for real, they need to get booked on some show, try "The Doctors" - it would be funny to see them there. But these guys have great harmony and should do more! Thanks!! Fabulous job guys!!
WTG GUYS you can put me to sleep and wake me up anytime GUYS , Good to have a sense of Humor .....LOL
This might be your first "hit" from Australia. I am unsure as there were too many to read through. You guys are fantastic and I have almost rolled with laughter and couldn't resist sending this to all my co-workers and friends. As an Emergency Department Nurse laughs are often few and far between. If ever I need an "op" please send the guy on the right. I don't think I would feel an incision from my strnum to my symphisus !!!! Damn that wedding band !!!! Lee
Very cute...I am a labor & delivery scrub tech...my only issue is that they were in a real O.R. without hats on...scrub tech antennae picked that up immediately! LOL
I love it!!!! Too bad they don't work in NY where they need that sense of humor!!!!
i am a single (divorced) 57 year old music teacher......which one is available for making music together with me????
LOVE IT! A friend passed this to me via email and now I'm going to pass it to fellow medical office friends. I would love to work with guys with this sense of humor, harmony and cuteness! Keep up the fun.
My grandmother was a CRNA and I would have paid big money to see her do something like this. It's nice to see the humor that comes out when you work with people for a length of time. You guys can wake me up any time! Wish my extern site had that much fun working together. They need to take lessons!
I am a nurse in Hawaii and I loved seeing this, can you send the humor and creativness across the ocean to us!!
these guys are absolutely awesome; cheered my day for sure ... hope they do some Monkee renditions soon xo
Well, this is too funny. The caption clearly states that they are nurse anethesiologists, but some readers, seeing that they are guys, call them "These Doctors".
Hello!! Nurses are multi-talented!
Am a recent ER/OR/Rehab patient recovering from a fractured femur (which occured while dancing at my nephew's wedding in Dallas last month (followed by a mild stroke 24 hours later and the diagnosis of a PFO ... or some other medical acronym indicating I have a hole in my heart). ONE WISH ... that I had been dancing to the music of these guys instead of the BeeGees!! Perhaps it would have prepared me a little for what was to come!!! Outstanding song .. outstanding job!! (no offense to the BeeGees ... are there even any of them still around?).
I loved this! I sang to my daughter when she was 4 yrs old, in the OR waiting room. It not only calmed her, but also the others of all ages awaiting surgery. "Music hath charms" after all.
Great! My husband was an ER Tech in the AF for 20+ years ... he loved it and so do I!
What a great video!!!! I've been a nurse over 35 years now and have never experienced anything like this. How funny!!! I've had surgery when in "twilight sleep" and I could see myself imagining these anesthesiologists breaking out in song.LOL It would be more fun waking up after surgery.
Rockin' out and just singing along. Wonderful live entertainment. Love this!
I am a retired RN who LOVED my jobs over a 50 year career. I do miss the camaraderie of work so anytime I feel like a 'pick me up' I play this song and it never fails to make me smile.
Thanks guys
This was fantastic. They did a great job and brighten my day.
Come sing in my hospital OR!!!
LOL!
And visit my blog too!
HERE
Great Job Guys!

A friend of mine is a ENT and occasionally the anesthesiologist and him would send patients to sleep with the opening lines of The Doors' Crystal Ship...
My Sister is an RN and she just went hillarious over this ....
OMG..... I just loved this. I will remember this the next time I go under with a smile! God has bless these anesthesiologist's with a great pair of lungs and sense of humor! Good Job!
omg these guys can really sing.
Loved it! I'm a 25+ yr OR nurse. I knew a lot of talented anesthesiologists, anesthetists and surgeons that weren't in the electronic communication era, unfortunately. Glad to see these guys doing a great representation for all surgical professionals past & present.
Linda D., RN
Great job guys....great voices too.....this was fantastic....give us more!
kAWESOME SONG GUYS!!!!!!!!!
Tears coming down my face, this is just so hilarious! Brilliantly creative too. Thanks lots guys, for adding such fun to my day! ~ Catgoil
How hilarious. I notice that most of those commenting are OR folks. I'm a patient -- just had a total knee replacement two weeks ago. I have to admit, I can picture my anesthesiologist singing along. Having had a few surgeries (breast cancer, hysterectomy, etc.), I did once wake up. I remember hearing everyone talking, the anesthesiologist scrambling to give me more "white stuff" and being really angry that no one thought the joke I tried to contribute funny. I felt no pain.
I love it!I am always slow waking up, so they tell me. Maybe these guys are why I tend to wake up trying to sing a song. The last time was "Follow the Yellow Brick Road." Why?? Who knows. Great songs and singing.
This is great. Thanks for sharing.
I am a nurse and completely understand.
My nephew is a Nurse Anesthetis...I'm going to send this to him! Wish the would have be in the operating room when I had my knee replacement last month!
I have this on my desktop and every time I need a lift or a laugh I play it - been there for a year and I NEVER get tired of listening. These guys are great!
Retired Critical Care RN
Oh what fun that would be to hear on the background of a report!!! Thanks for the tunes and giggles! Nitrous oxide certainly not required!
Fabulous!...from an E.R. nurse in a NJ trauma center..good looking too!
A friend just sent this to me this morning.....I'm in love! Not only are they talented but what an amazing sense of humor. They're just what the doctor ordered!
I am not a nurse, but have been in the O.R. a couple of times, and these guys can sing, and I have never laughed so hard in my life!! Keep up the singing!!
OMG, lol, that was so excellent!! I worked in PACU (Recovery) and will share this with everyone, lol
These guys should send this tape to Jay Leno -- you never know when they'll get tired of "gassing" people and looking for another career! Fantastic job guys!
I never passed gas the way these dudes did.I did
and still do it my way.Thanks for the memory guys.
Jamal
I wish people would not forward this as the singing anesthesiologists- They are in fact, nurse anesthetists, The Laryngospasms!
Please remember that most of the anesthesia in the US is provided by nurse anesthetists!
Love it guys! Great job!
Love it!!! Helarious! Go on guys you will be famouse soon!!Keep singing!!! Awesome!!
wow, what a fun place to get surgery lol
Great voices, and cute too, and I like music in the OR, as I have had a few surgeries in my time, going under laughing would be good.......
These guys are great. What fun......nice voices.....
Cute.
Have you heard the "Song of the Colo Rectal Surgeon"??? ... Absolutely hilarious. However, it is not sung by the likes of these anesthesiologists. As a semi-professional entertainer, let me say great singing guys, and the harmony was good too.
LOL!!! I want to work with these guys! LOL! I love it! This is all so true! I'm an ICU RN and this just made my day!
Wonderful ! I am an RN and I loved it! One of the very best I have ever heard or seen! Hope that get a recording contract.
