Department of Anesthesiology Featured Member: March 2021

Anuradha moved to St. Louis in 2018 and joined the Department of Anesthesiology as an international specialist. She enjoys working in the diverse department and has made many good friends here -- so much so that she considers the department as an extend family!

She values the work culture in the department and really enjoys teaching residents.

Outside of work, Anuradha enjoys reading, cooking (experimenting) and listening to music. She values family time and finds spending time playing with her daughter (Anvi) a great stress reducer.

Department of Anesthesiology Featured Member: August 2020

Melissa was born at Barnes-Jewish Hospital and grew up right around the corner from the medical campus. She has been with the School of Medicine for just over 5 years. She is the manager of credentialing and scheduling and has an excellent team she is incredibly proud to be a part of. Melissa initially planned to be an artist and went to art school after high school, but instead ended up spending 17 years in the medical field at another local University where she obtained an undergraduate degree in Humanities, another in Education, and a Masters in Teaching. She has a 16-year-old son who will be a junior at Ladue this year and wishes he could be preparing for another football state championship right now. She loves to craft, hike with her dog, cook, and travel as often as possible. Fun fact: she has a sister (by marriage) also named Melissa Bowman.
