About Laurie K Davies

My name is Laurie Davies, MD, and I am an associate professor of anesthesiology in the Divisions of Cardiothoracic Anesthesiology and Pediatric Anesthesiology. I also hold a joint appointment as an associate professor of surgery and am the medical director of operating rooms at Shands. I joined the Department of Anesthesiology as an assistant professor in 1985. I earned my bachelor’s and medical degrees here at the University of Florida, and completed my anesthesiology residency and fellowship here as well.

I’m a Diplomate, Senior Examiner, and Associate Examiner for the American Board of Anesthesiology and hold editorial board titles for a number of medical journals. I’m a member of several professional societies, including the Alachua County Medical Society, the American Medical Association, and the College of Medicine Women Faculty Association. I am also an Editorial Board Member for Seminars in Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesiology and Ad Hoc Consultant for the Journal of Clinical Monitoring and Computing. In 2021, I was awarded the Haven M. Perkins Lifetime Teaching Award by the department.
