Dr. Anthony Ross is a Board-Certified Dentist Anesthesiologist dedicated exclusively to providing exceptional, individualized anesthesia care for patients of all ages. He believes every patient deserves an experience built on trust, meticulous preparation, and personalized attention. Understanding that the decision to pursue anesthesia, particularly for a child, can feel overwhelming, Dr. Ross takes the time to guide families through every step of the process with thoughtful communication, reassurance, and a steadfast commitment to patient-centered care.
Dr. Ross earned undergraduate degrees in Biology and Business with Renaissance Honors from the University of Southern California before receiving his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of Southern California Herman Ostrow School of Dentistry. Upon graduation, he was inducted into Omicron Kappa Upsilon (OKU), the prestigious national dental honor society recognizing excellence in scholarship, leadership, and professional character.
Dr. Ross completed his specialty training in Dental Anesthesiology at NYU Langone Hospital–Brooklyn, a Level I Trauma Center, where he served as Chief Resident. His training provided extensive experience administering anesthesia for patients of all ages and varying levels of medical complexity, in both hospital and office-based settings.
Today, Dr. Ross dedicates his practice exclusively to office-based dental anesthesia, working closely with Dr. Bienstock and her team of pediatric dentists and dental specialists to provide IV sedation and general anesthesia within a trusted dental setting. This collaborative approach allows patients to receive necessary dental care while benefiting from advanced anesthesia expertise, personalized attention, and a calm, reassuring experience.
As part of his commitment to exceptional patient care, Dr. Ross works alongside his wife, Dr. Elizabeth Ross, a Board-Certified Family Medicine Physician. Together, they consider each patient’s medical history and individual health needs to help ensure every anesthesia plan is carefully tailored to the patient. Their partnership provides families with an additional level of medical expertise and reassurance throughout the anesthesia experience.
In addition to his clinical practice, Dr. Ross serves as Clinical Faculty for NYU Langone Dental Medicine, where he mentors future Pediatric Dentistry and Dental Anesthesiology specialists. He remains committed to advancing the specialty through education, mentorship, and a continued focus on patient safety and clinical excellence.
Families appreciate Dr. Ross not only for his clinical expertise but also for his calm demeanor, attention to detail, and genuine compassion. Whether caring for a child experiencing dental anxiety, a patient with special healthcare needs, or an individual requiring extensive dental treatment, he approaches every case with the same philosophy: every patient deserves the level of care, attention, and compassion he would provide to a member of his own family.
Outside of the office, Dr. Ross enjoys traveling with his wife, exploring Phoenix’s vibrant culinary scene, spending time with family, and golfing whenever Arizona’s beautiful weather allows.
