Testimonials
I love working with VRAA for many reasons. I’m able to practice the full scope of my role as a CRNA, enjoy a wide variety of cases and clinical settings, and maintain a flexible schedule where I can work as much or as little as I choose. Compensation is competitive with guaranteed hours, and there is strong support from both colleagues and administration.
Gladys Narvades, CRNA
What I enjoy most about working with VRAA is the ability to practice autonomously while maintaining schedule flexibility. What truly sets VRAA apart from other groups I’ve worked with is that it is CRNA-driven, which is uncommon among anesthesia groups nationwide. For colleagues considering joining VRAA, I would highlight the competitive pay, abundance of available hours across multiple practice locations, and the exceptional teamwork among CRNAs. Leadership is cohesive, supportive, and genuinely invested in the success of the group.
David Rodrigues, CRNA
Working with VRAA has provided me with a unique pathway to grow professionally, continue learning, and provide for my family. Immediately after graduating, VRAA worked diligently to place me in the operating room as quickly as possible, allowing me to begin practicing anesthesia in less than 30 days.
Throughout my time with VRAA, the organization has supported my professional growth, stood by me through significant life changes as I grew my family, and recognized my dedication by entrusting me with increasing responsibilities. I’ve had the opportunity to work across numerous clinical sites, expand my skills as a clinician, and ultimately step into a Chief role.
I am deeply grateful to VRAA for their belief in me and for providing an environment that has allowed my practice as a CRNA to grow without limitation.
Grayson McHargue, CRNA
Working with VRAA as a CRNA has been a great experience. What I enjoy most is the mentorship and teamwork—Gabe Alvarez and Dr. Mervat Basta have been incredible mentors and supporters, and the entire group is genuinely down-to-earth and easy to work with.
What truly sets VRAA apart from other groups I’ve worked with is the level of trust and respect shown to you as a clinician. There is real autonomy and flexibility in how you practice, while still feeling fully supported and never isolated—the team truly has your back.
For any colleague considering joining VRAA, I would say it is an excellent environment to practice anesthesia at a high level while feeling supported both clinically and personally. The culture is collaborative, respectful, and free of ego, making it a great place to grow and build a long-term career.

Dr. Ian Medus, MD
Since graduating, VRAA has invested in my professional growth, allowing me to advance into senior management while continuing to practice to the full scope of my training. Having worked in many systems, the close support from leadership, the administrative team, and the strong relationships among colleagues are what truly make the culture at VRAA exceptional.
