I have previously seen Ariel Black who recommended that I see Dr. Kelly Gross. I know Ariel is only a PA, but I had become comfortable with her and had developed a high degree of trust. I was nervous about seeing Dr. Gross and worried what the experience would be like. I asked a lot of questions and pushed to see if Dr. Gross would respond in a way that was terse or impatient. Through it all, she was laid back and even wearing a mask I could see that she was smiling. Kelly Gross just has a kind demeanor who seems to know how to work with men, even older men, and put them at ease. She would really make a great primary care doctor if she had not decided to specialize.
