After also completing his fellowship in pediatric cardiology at Rainbow Babies & Children's Hospital, Dr. Ross joined the pediatric cardiology practice at Dayton Children's Hospital. Dr. Ross is board certified in both pediatrics and pediatric cardiology. When asked why he chose to specialize in cardiology he responded "I was really fortunate to have an incredible mentor during my fellowship. He allowed me to be hands on and as involved as possible for the care of his cardiology patients. Over time it felt like a natural fit". During his time here at Dayton Children's Dr. Ross has developed a special interest in caring for his patients beyond the walls of the hospital. Dr. Ross and his wife volunteer each year at a summer camp for kids with serious illnesses, including heart disease. He enjoys having camp as another topic of conversation when his patients visit him in clinic. One of his favorite things about working with children is seeing them grow into successful and healthy adults. Outside of the hospital, Dr. Ross enjoys spending time outdoors with his wife and three grown children. He also enjoys getting outside and running when he can!

We had a great experience. I felt like the provider really took their time and listened to us and made my son feel very comfortable. Not only the doctor, but all of the nurses and all of the technicians that helped us. And I thoroughly appreciate Dayton Children's.

Dr. Ross sees both of my daughters for their pots and he spent a lot of time listening to both of them and myself and acknowledged my concerns and took me seriously and it was a relief after seeing so many doctors who don't and my oldest daughter saw him first so I took my second daughter to see him after she came home talking about how great her visit was. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Ross.
