    Awesome! She has a great friendly personality and a talented surgeon. My son needed knee meniscus surgery and he was nervous. She made him totally comfortable and did a great job. He is healing really good. Office staff is very friendly also. Would definitely recommend!

    Dr. Ross repaired a triple hamstring avulsion surgery for me, reattaching to the ischial tuberosity. 6cm retraction. She is comfortable with the procedure if it's within 4-6 weeks of injury. She did a fantastic job with a cosmetic close. I've had virtually no pain, swelling, or nerve damage. She is thorough, compassionate, and friendly. She made me feel at ease and confident.
