Anesthesiology

Dr. Michael Higgins of Anesthesia Associates works together with Dr. Kolinski and Dr. Crosby to serve our patients who have anesthesiology requirements beyond local anesthetic. Dr. Higgins has been associated with our practice for over 20 years and is a valued colleague. Although most treatment in our office can be completed using local anesthetic, some patients may prefer the option of either general anesthetic or sedation therapy during their care. Scheduling Dr. Higgins for your surgical appointment can be facilitated through our Treatment Coordinator. His fees are billed by Anesthesia Associates, and are separate from those billed by Dr. Kolinski and Dr. Crosby.

Dr. Higgins received his professional education from the University of Illinois Medical Center, Chicago, and his specialty training from the Catholic Medical Center, New York and Illinois Masonic Medical Center, Chicago.

Dr. Higgins has been in private practice since 1982 and holds the academic rank of Associate Professor in Anesthesiology with the University of Illinois. He is an active member of the American Dental Association, the International Anesthesia Research Society, the American Society of Dentist Anesthesiologists, and the American Dental Society of Anesthesiology. He has served as President of the American Society of Dentist Anesthesiologists, the Illinois State Dental Society, and the Illinois Dental Society of Anesthesiology.

Dr. Higgins is a Fellow of both the American College of Dentists and the International College of Dentists. He is board certified with the American Dental Board of Anesthesiology and the National Board of Anesthesiology. He is a Fellow of the American Dental Society of Anesthesiology.
