Tiffany Cheng
Clinical Assistant Professor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
BioI am a physician leader and anesthesiologist at Stanford Health Care, where I serve as Medical Director of Perioperative Services at SHC Palo Alto and hold a faculty appointment as Clinical Assistant Professor at Stanford University School of Medicine.
My work sits at the intersection of direct patient care and systems-level leadership. I have a track record of building high-performing clinical teams, designing governance structures from the ground up, and delivering measurable operational impact — including significant improvements in OR utilization, block efficiency, and access to care across Stanford's interventional platform.
I founded Stanford's Anesthesiology Mentorship Program (AMP), a faculty development initiative that received the Augustus A. White III Award, and co-founded ASPIRE, a multi-institutional speaker exchange network. I am a graduate of Stanford's Physician Leadership Certificate Program and will begin an Executive MBA at Santa Clara University in Fall 2026.
I believe that the strongest clinical institutions are built on trust, accountability, and a genuine investment in the people doing the work — and I bring that conviction to every leadership role I hold. -
