Mailing List
For better communication, which is the goal we are trying to achieve, we want to create a mailing list that includes all anesthesia residents in Ohio. Address your concerns and interests to the OSA as well as the governing body of the OSA Resident Component. All you need to participate is an e-mail address.

A special request to chief residents: Send us a list of your residents with email addresses.
