  2. Sedation: It induces a state of relaxation and calmness, which can help alleviate anxiety and fear associated with medical treatments.
  3. Euphoria: Users often experience a sense of euphoria or lightness, which contributes to its nickname “laughing gas.”
  4. Respiratory Effects: Nitrous oxide is administered through inhalation, which can lead to a temporary increase in respiratory rate. However, it generally does not depress the respiratory system significantly.

  • Unbiased care.  Our providers do not earn a bonus based on”productivity” for volume of patients, number of surgical procedures, or amount of charges they bill.  The care you get is unbiased by our providers’ personal financial considerations.
  • Patient Choice.  The provider you see is your decision.  We strongly encourage that you form a relationship with your provider of choice.  If your expectations are not met, please request a different provider.  Other than satisfaction of providing great care, our providers have no incentives to compete for patients.  We want to keep you happy, and we collaborate to meet your preferences and to make decisions in the best interest of your health.
  • Respect.  We respect you, and try to accommodate your preferences and your time.  We do not overbook our providers. We strive to minimize your wait time and to give you the time with your provider that you deserve. You can generally rely on your scheduled appointment time (exceptions include illness of provider, rare emergency at hospital requiring more than one physician).  New patients can generally get in for an appointment within a reasonable time (and often on the same day).
