Dr. Ross hails from Chestertown, NY near the beautiful Lake George area. He grew up there riding and showing Western Pleasure Horses with a special affinity for reining horses. He received his undergraduate degree at Cornell University and then went on to become a graduate of Cornell University’s New York State College of Veterinary Medicine in 1981. After veterinary school and a 1-year internship at Cornell, he was accepted into a 3-year equine surgery residency program at the University of Pennsylvania’s New Bolton Center where he was appointed Lecturer in Surgery from 1985 to 1988, Assistant Professor of Surgery from 1988-1993 and Associate Professor of Surgery from 1993-1999. In 1999, Dr. Ross became a full professor of Surgery. Dr. Ross became a Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Surgeons in 1986 and an active member of the American Association of Equine Practitioners. Dr. Ross had broad clinical interests including equine gastrointestinal, respiratory and musculoskeletal surgery but in recent years has concentrated efforts in orthopedic surgery with a particular interest in arthroscopic surgical techniques. Equine lameness diagnosis and management has always been a passion and clinical focus with a special emphasis in the Standardbred and Thoroughbred racehorse. New Bolton Center is where he put down his roots and he is currently a consultant as a Professor of Surgery. Dr. Ross developed and is the Director of the Nuclear Medicine program at New Bolton Center. He is the author of over 420 scientific papers, books, proceedings, abstracts and book chapters. Ross and Dyson’s lameness textbook with companion CD, Diagnosis and Management of Lameness in the Horse, published December 2002 by WB Saunders (Elsevier Science), and now the 2nd edition, with a companion website, www.rossanddyson.com, published November 2010, is the culmination of over 37 years of study and interest in clinical examination, imaging and management of the lame horse. Ross and Dyson were recognized for that work by the Association of American Publishers for outstanding achievement in Professional and Scholarly Publishing (2003 award in the field of nursing and allied health).

During his career at the University, Dr. Ross would consult at Pine Bush Equine Services and even introduced Dr. Herb Burns to Dr. Howard Gill in 1992. Dr. “Doc” Gill, as you may know, was the founder of Pine Bush Equine Services. He retired in 2000 and sold the practice to Dr. Burns. Dr. Ross has proven his expertise and loyalty over his many years of working with Dr. Burns and Doc Gill.

Dr. Ross recently retired from the University of Pennsylvania to continue his passion for equine veterinary medicine by working more directly with horse owners in private practice at Pine Bush Equine Services.
