I have been seeing Dr. Ross for about 8 years. He was recommended to me by a prosthesis salesperson friend who trained surgeons to perform shoulder replacement surgery using his prosthetics. Dr. Ross performed my total left shoulder replacement 7 years ago. He is such a caring, highly professional, extremely capable and knowledgeable surgeon. He did such a great job with my left shoulder replacement surgery, and is such a delightful, kind person, I am scheduling my right shoulder replacement surgery with him for this fall. Having shoulder replacement surgery is a daunting undertaking. Dr. Ross does so well providing comfort and support to reduce anxiety. He is a gem!

Dr Ross listened attentively to my concerns and experiences. His examination was skillful and precise. His explanations were clear and his conclusion rang true and consistent with my experience. I have complete confidence in dr Ross and feel the two hour drive to see him was wise and totally worth the trip to get what I feel was the best care possible.

I’m extremely nervous regarding getting a total shoulder replacement. I had a lot of questions for Dr. Ross; he was patient, clear and comforting in answering me. After meeting with Dr. Ross I feel secure in choosing him to perform the operation.

I had a total shoulder replacement 6 months ago. The new shoulder is fantastic and I have zero pain. I can push it very hard at the gym with no problem. Dr Ross is a tremendous surgeon and I constantly recommend him to people at the gym . No one can believe how good my shoulder is now , including me !!!

Dr Ross performed shoulder surgery for me in early May 2022. His follow-up has been outstanding during my rehab and the outcome has been very good.
