Dr. Sanmiguel's clinical background and the anesthesia standards he holds for every Allure RT MX procedure.
As Chief of Anesthesia & Pain Management at Allure RT MX, Dr. Sanmiguel oversees pre-operative review, intraoperative monitoring, and recovery comfort for every procedure performed at the partner facility. 30+ years of OR work across cosmetic, bariatric, plastic, and regenerative procedures shape his calm, deliberate approach to patient safety — the same approach that founded Sanmiguel Health, where he serves as owner and president.
Chief-level anesthesia oversight on every procedure
Dr. Sanmiguel personally leads anesthesia for the surgical cases performed at Allure RT MX — the same chief who reviewed your case is in the room from induction through wake-up.
From the moment a patient is admitted through the first hours of recovery, anesthesia at Allure RT MX is led by the same chief anesthesiologist who reviewed the case. International patients arrive after long flights, time-zone shifts, and disrupted medication routines — details a rotating anesthesia pool can miss. A single chief, present from start to finish, doesn't.
My working process
From the first medical-history review through the first hours of recovery — coordinated end-to-end so anesthesia is one less thing for you to worry about.
Personal review of your medical history, current medications, prior surgeries, and labs. International travel and time-zone shift factored into the plan.
A written anesthesia plan tuned to your procedure, anatomy, and risk profile — with conservative dosing and a focus on minimal post-op nausea.
Same anesthesia team from induction through closure. Continuous monitoring of vitals, depth of anesthesia, and surgical-team communication throughout.
Dedicated recovery monitoring during the first hours after surgery, with hydration support, comfortable pain management, and clear discharge instructions.
Anonymized patient feedback themed around the anesthesia experience — comfort, communication, and recovery.
