Get to know Anesthesiologist Dr. Rosemarie Marshall Johnson, who served patients in San Diego, California.
New York City, New York Jun 29, 2023 (Issuewire.com) - Recognized as thoughtful and compassionate, Dr. Johnson is a retired anesthesiologist with over four decades of experience.
Since 2008, she has been involved with a program called Project Access - run by Champions for Health - which utilizes local doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals and hospitals as volunteers who donate their time, skills and materials, allowing patients with limited means to receive free health care. It is extensive with more than 625 volunteer physicians, 80 referring community clinics, 10 hospitals and 14 outpatient surgical centers, as well as ancillary health services that provide imaging, labs, medical equipment, physical therapy and more.
Well known to most physicians in the San Diego area, Dr. Johnson has helped the program recruit specialists. She has also been a passionate advocate for the underserved and uninsured in her county.
Champions for Health recognized her with the "Health Heroes Lifetime Achievement" Award in 2017 for her volunteer service at their annual Health Heroes Awards reception at Lomas Santa Fe Country Club in Solana Beach.
Throughout her academic career, Dr. Johnson graduated with her Bachelor of Arts degree in French Literature & Pre-Med from Mount Holyoke College in 1960. She then went on to earn her medical degree from Georgetown University School of Medicine in 1964.
Subsequent to her education, she attained board certification in anesthesiology through the American Board of Anesthesiology (ABA). The ABA sets standards and exams for the accreditation of board-certified anesthesiologists coming to the end of their residency. It is one of the 24 medical specialty boards that constitutes the American Board of Medical Specialties.
In the 1990s, Dr. Johnson was appointed to the U.S.- Mexico Border Health Commission to help develop an infrastructure to improve health care delivery and affect health policy change through bi-national collaboration. She also chose to serve organized medicine as president of the San Diego County Medical Society and the California Society of Anesthesiologists; and has participated in the California Medical Association and the American Medical Association in many different capacities.
Anesthesiology is the medical specialty concerned with the total perioperative care of patients before, during, and after surgery. It encompasses anesthesia, intensive care medicine, critical emergency medicine, and pain medicine. Anesthesiologists have the primary responsibility of monitoring the patient's vital signs during surgery. In addition to basic measurements such as pulse, blood pressure, and temperature, they measure the patient's respiration.
