An anesthesiologist is someone who anesthetizes patients. They can help sedate patients and put them under for surgeries or other medical procedures. They help prepare their patients for procedures and make sure they are not experiencing any pain or fear associated with the treatment or procedure they are undergoing. They work closely with other doctors, surgeons, and specialists to ensure that patients are being treated properly.

Critical care is provided for patients who are suffering from life-threatening conditions. The doctors who work with these people are often called intensivists. They focus on a range of different issues, so they can serve people who need immediate and life-saving care. Since people who need critical care are suffering from such a wide variety of issues, intensivists must have a thorough understanding of diverse types of medical issues and the devices and medications needed to treat them.

Otolaryngologists are more commonly called ENTs, which stands for ear, nose, and throat. ENTs are medical professionals that are trained to diagnose and treat diseases and illnesses that affect the ear, nose, throat, and related structures of the head and neck. They can treat serious diseases, such as cancer, or simple health problems, such as strep throat.
