Celebrating Over 150 Years of Obstetric Anesthesia
The Society for Obstetric Anesthesia and Perinatology (SOAP) was founded in 1968 to provide a forum for discussion of problems unique to the peripartum period. SOAP is comprised of anesthesiologists, obstetricians, pediatricians, and basic scientists who share an interest in the care of the pregnant patient and the newborn.
The MISSION of this Society is to improve the pregnancy-related outcomes of women and neonates through the support of obstetric anesthesiology research, the provision of education to its members, and other providers, and pregnant women, and the promotion of excellence in clinical anesthetic care.
Through the newsletter, Internet site, and annual meetings, this Society allows practitioners of several specialties to meet and discuss clinical practice, basic and clinical research, and practical professional concerns.
A membership in SOAP is an opportunity to meet people who share your interests, and to stimulate improvements in health care for pregnant patients.
Welcome to SOAP!

Welcome to the official SOAP website. We’re happy that you are here and hope that you leave satisfied. The website was redesigned in 2009, yet is considered a ‘works in progress’. Our goal is for it to be easy to navigate and a one-stop website for all of your obstetric anesthesia-related needs. The home page contains information and links we believe will be useful to both patients and non-member physicians and the restricted-access area contains a number of member benefits including guidance documents, Society archives, and the membership directory. Although the website is markedly improved and there are plans for additional features, you can also help to make it better. Please provide feedback via the email link by selecting the About Us/Contact Us tabs. All suggestions are welcome such as: how can the website be improved, what information is missing, and how can it be made easier to navigate? Thanks again for visiting SOAP’s website and we hope to see you back soon.
Sincerely yours,
Robert D’Angelo, MD
President, SOAP
