Timothy Beckett | Founder

Dr. Timothy Beckett has been practicing as a board certified anesthesiologist in the Las Vegas area since 2003. A native Texan, Dr. Beckett received his Bachelor’s Degree in Biology from the University of Texas at Austin in 1995, and his Medical Degree from the University of Texas Health Sciences Center at San Antonio in 1999.

Dr. Beckett then attended the University of Michigan for his anesthesiology residency, and served as Chief Resident during his final year there. In 2008 he and his partner formed Valley Anesthesiology Consultants, a thriving anesthesiology group that they were able to grow to include over 40 physicians and CRNAs. In recent years, he and his partner entered into a strategic partnership with National Partners in Healthcare, a private equity backed anesthesia practice management company, and he is now a physician partner with the company.

Dr. Beckett currently serves as Medical Director of the Pain Matters Wellness Center where his major focus is to assist in curbing addiction by employing non-opioid modalities to treat pain. He is a past Chairman of the Department of Anesthesiology for Southern Hills Hospital. He is a Clinical Faculty Supervisor and Adjunct Professor for Touro University College of Osteopathic Medicine.

Dr. Beckett is a staunch proponent of the use of cannabis in the treatment of many medical illnesses, including chronic pain, and believes cannabis has a very relevant place in end of life care for certain individuals. He is licensed to practice medicine in Nevada, Arizona, and California, and his hope is to spread his concept of “Holistic Passing” to these states as Unified Care Hospice grows.
