Assistant Professor of Surgery
Albert Einstein College of Medicine
Bronx, New York
Dr. Anna Liveris is a trauma and acute care surgeon at Jacobi Medical Center and Assistant Professor of Surgery at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine. She is board certified in General Surgery and Surgical Critical Care by the American Board of Surgery and in Neurocritical Care Medicine by the American Board of Anesthesiology. Her clinical practice focuses on the management of severely injured and critically ill surgical patients, with expertise in traumatic hemorrhage, complex resuscitation, neurotrauma, and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). She performs hundreds of emergency operations annually and leads multidisciplinary care for the Bronx’s most critically injured patients. As the surgical critical care liaison to Jacobi’s multidisciplinary ECMO service, she founded and integrated the institution’s ECMO program into trauma and critical care pathways.
Her academic work centers on improving outcomes in patients with life-threatening injury and critical illness, with a focus on bleeding management, trauma-induced coagulopathy, traumatic brain injury, geriatric trauma, and extracorporeal support. She serves as principal investigator at Einstein for national and international multicenter trials and conducts outcomes-based research examining trauma systems, hemorrhage control strategies, and the interface between ECMO and coagulopathy.
A nationally recognized educator and mentor, she holds leadership roles across undergraduate and graduate medical education, directing curricula and advanced training in trauma resuscitation, hemorrhage management, critical care, and ECMO. She has received multiple teaching awards in recognition of her impact on surgical education and mentorship.
Through her combined expertise in operative trauma, hemorrhage physiology, neurocritical care, and ECMO program leadership, Dr. Liveris brings a uniquely integrated, bedside-to-systems perspective to the management of ECMO-associated coagulopathy. Her work bridges high-acuity clinical decision-making, multidisciplinary program development, and evidence-driven practice in the clinical application of ECMO in the bleeding and critically injured patient.
