Meet Dr. Greg Bellig

Safety is the only thing that matters when it comes to your child. As a Double Board-Certified Physician Anesthesiologist with over 25 years of experience, Dr. Greg has dedicated his career to keeping children safe during surgery.

Before founding Ascend, Dr. Greg served as the Director of Pediatric Cardiac Anesthesia at Sutter Memorial Hospital, held a significant leadership role as the Chief Medical Officer for CURE International, a global organization dedicated to exapanding surgical access to children in developing countries, and now continues to care for children at UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital, Sutter Medical Center in Sacramento, and children and adult patients at John Muir Hospital in Walnut Creek. He has spent decades managing the most complex cases, so he is over-prepared to take care of your little one.

But beyond the credentials, Dr. Greg is a husband and father of five. He understands that handing your child over to a doctor requires immense trust. He brings the same gentle, reassuring care to your family that he would want for his own.

Dr. Greg is a native of the San Francisco Bay Area. He completed his undergraduate studies at UC Berkeley, and earned his medical degree from Georgetown University School of Medicine. He completed an anesthesiology residency at Northwestern University, and advanced fellowship training in pediatric anesthesia at Chicago Children’s Hospital (now Lurie Children’s).
