Get to Know Me

Elizabeth Hewitt has been practicing anesthesia in the greater Philadephia area for the last 17 years. She is a native of Springfield, Delaware County, and a graduate of the Penn State Schreyer Honors College. She did her residency at the University of Pennsylvania and has a passion for women's health and obstetric anesthesia. She is the proud mother of four sons and enjoys skiing, attending their soccer games, reading, and taveling in her free time.

Why I Treat Children

Funnily enough, in this professional role, I don't! I treat the adult mom who is expecting, and love to bring warmth and compassion to what is an exciting and often nerve-wracking time of life.

What I'm Passionate About

I am passionate about people. Connecting with people, their emotions, their experience, is why I do what I do and why I love coming to work every day.

How I Try to Make A Difference

I try to use my unique skill set of connecting with others to impact my patients. We are all trained in residency on how to deliver anesthesia. I feel that I bring the unique ability to bond and form relationships, that makes the entire anesthetic, as well as whole patient experience, better.
