What is Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass?


Who did your surgery?


Surgeons are not known for their bed side manner.  If you have had surgery you know this.  Most surgeons are very technical and black/white.  I have had seven or so surgeries over the course of my life and have found this to be true.  However, Dr. Ross must have been cut from a different cloth! He is the gentlest and kindest surgeon I have ever met.  He has a very caring and gracious spirit about him.   When you are with him, you know that he cares about you, as a person, first.  That is so important when having a surgery that is this serious.  I would recommend him (and have) to anyone that is looking into bariatric surgery.  He is fantastic! :)


 
Dr. Ross is board certified by the American College of Surgeons. He graduated from the Medical University of South Carolina and completed his general surgery residency at Spartanburg Regional. As bariatric medical director and primary bariatric surgeon, Dr. Ross has performed more than 1,100 weight loss surgeries.

Dr. Ross is dedicated to helping patients regain healthy, active lives. He is a member of the South Carolina Medical Association and the American College of Surgeons. He is a member and a fellow of the American Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery, and is actively involved in the Bariatric Society of the Carolinas.
