Welcome Dr. Mary Decker!
Dr. Mary Decker grew up in Helena, MT, and attended Dartmouth College and Harvard Medical School. She completed her internship and residency at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston. During her time in New England, she frequently drove north for cross-country skiing and hiking.

She is excited to be back west and closer to her sister in Bend and parents in Montana. Outside the hospital, she loves hiking, camping, board games, home/yard/car projects, and tapping along to Merle Haggard or Robert Cray. She and her husband Colby are expecting their first child in October.

Some of the strongest healthcare teams are built over years of working together.

Long-standing professional relationships create trust, open communication and the confidence to navigate even the most complex cases together. At BAG, those relationships extend beyond the operating room — and ultimately benefit every patient we serve.

Preparing for surgery can feel overwhelming, but one thing you can count on is receiving thoughtful, personalized anesthesia care.

Before your procedure, your anesthesiologist carefully reviews your medical history, develops an anesthesia plan tailored to your individual needs, and is focused on your safety and comfort throughout your surgical experience.

At Bend Anesthesiology Group, caring for patients means more than providing anesthesia—it means taking the time to answer questions, ease concerns, and deliver compassionate, high-quality care when you need it most.
