Timothy Kelly, MD, MPH
Clinical Instructor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
BioDr. Timothy Kelly, MD, MPH, is a fellowship-trained pain medicine specialist and board-certified emergency medicine doctor at Stanford Health Care. He is a clinical instructor in the Department of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine at Stanford University School of Medicine.
Dr. Kelly provides pain management care and treats pain conditions such as chronic neck, back, knee, and shoulder pain.
Dr. Kelly’s research focuses on the intersection of pain management and emergency medicine. He has studied treatments like peripheral nerve stimulation (using small electrical devices to reduce chronic pain) and targeted drug delivery. Dr. Kelly is interested in bridging the gap between emergency medicine and pain medicine.
Dr. Kelly’s research has been published in numerous peer-reviewed journals, including Annals of Internal Medicine, Clinical Toxicology, American Journal of Emergency Medicine, and Academic Emergency Medicine Education and Training, among others.
Dr. Kelly is a member of the American Society of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine (ASRA), North American Neuromodulation Society (NANS), and American Academy of Pain Medicine (AAPM). -
Joan Kendig
Professor of Biology in the Department of Anesthesia, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy laboratory tries to find out how pharmacologic agents used in the practice of anesthesia (general anesthetic and analgesic agents) lead to therapeutically desireable endpoints including unconsciousness, immobility and absence of pain. The old idea that general anesthetics are uniformly non-specific "membrane stabilizers" is giving way to a new realization that these agents exert specific actions on particular ion channels and intracellular signalling systems.

Cynthia Khoo
Clinical Associate Professor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
BioDr. Khoo serves as the Associate Program Director of Career Development for the Stanford Anesthesia Residency and Co-Director of the Division of Global Health Equity. In her residency role, she leads the Anesthesiology Leadership Pathways at Stanford (ALPS), a comprehensive mentorship initiative spanning advocacy, research, community engagement, global health, innovation, medical education and quality improvement.
A graduate of the University of Pennsylvania’s MD-PhD program, Dr. Khoo completed her residency and regional anesthesia fellowship at Stanford. Her global health work focuses on promoting safe, equitable perioperative care through high-tech education, including immersive reality simulations for crisis management in Tanzania and Guyana. She supports bi-directional partnerships that facilitate resident rotations and host international scholars at Stanford. Her current research focuses on enhancing clinical research quality in low-resource settings across Rwanda, Vietnam, Guyana, and Tanzania. Dr. Khoo specializes clinically in regional, orthopedic, and thoracic anesthesia.
