Part of an international network originating at the University of Rochester, the Centre creates spaces for clinicians to remember their intention in medicine, attend to what matters in their work, and connect with one another as people within medicine. Ross is a Fellow of Lifestyle Medicine Australasia, a certified teacher of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, and a facilitator in the University of Rochester’s Mindful Practice in Medicine program. He has facilitated mindfulness, reflective practice and narrative medicine programs for medical students, clinicians and healthcare teams.

In Lifestyle Medicine, this brings together the pillars of quieting the mind and social connection.
