Care Philosophy: The term ?Doctor? literally means ?one who teaches.? As such, Dr. Ross regards his professional responsibility to his patients to be more that of a teacher and advisor than an authoritative dictator who tells his patients what is best for them. He believes that a patient?s freedom to make their own decisions, so long as those decisions are well-informed, far out ways his own personal values or the values of the organizations to which he belongs. He believes that all his patients and caregivers have the ability to understand their personal medical condition and make appropriate medical decisions for themselves or their dependents so long as he takes the time to explain what the condition is, how it might impact each individual based on their personal values, and what treatment options are available. He will never tell his patient to take this medication or have that procedure performed because that is what he thinks is best for his patient, but instead will provide his patients with the knowledge and guidance to make their own decision on how best to proceed with their healthcare.
