Company History

Originally founded as Holy Cross Anesthesiology Associates, P.A. (HCAA), the practice historically provided hospital-based anesthesia services associated with the Holy Cross health system. In 2022, the group underwent a strategic transition away from inpatient hospital coverage and restructured into an ambulatory-focused anesthesia organization. As part of that evolution, the practice adopted the name Potomac Anesthesia Associates (PAA), reflecting its exclusive focus on ambulatory surgery centers, procedural suites, and office-based anesthesia care throughout Maryland.
