Dr. Katie Ross's affinity for Portland began with a memorable summer at the VA Hospital, setting the stage for her eventual move. Following in the footsteps of her grandfather and uncle, she was drawn to the blend of science and service that optometry offers.
Now, alongside her husband, Dr. Ross is eager to immerse herself in Oregon's beauty and community. Outside the clinic, she's an avid explorer of nature and culinary arts, always ready for a new trail or recipe. Dr. Ross's academic achievements at the University of California Berkeley School of Optometry were marked by her commitment to excellence and leadership.
Her professional path is distinguished by a dedication to innovative dry eye treatments and compassionate care for those with low vision and traumatic brain injuries. William James's words, “Act as if what you do makes a difference. It does,” perfectly capture her approach to optometry and life.
