Condolence From: Dr.Lorne Tarshis
Condolence: For a very brief time in 1978 when I started my surgical care I was on staff at SGH before moving to the Wellesley Hospital and building the Institute of Cosmetic Surgery in Toronto.
I vividly remember Dr.Dobson as a superb technical surgeon and the consummate professional and gentleman.
This memory lasts to this day..a role model for our profession!
My condolences to all the family .

Condolence From: Sophie, Lili and Arlene Hofstader
Condolence: To the Dobson family, our sincerest condolences. We have such wonderful memories of times together on Bendale, at Scarborough General... we remember Ross as such a kind, gentle and helpful gentleman. We also remember him as a superb surgeon who would go out of his way to help his patients and colleagues. In his work at the hospital, the most complicated procedures were done in the most seemingly effortless way. Many decades of friendship were shared. We will treasure the memories.

Condolence: Ross and I were, for several years, fellow members of the Council of the College of Physicians and Surgeons. I remember him as a warm and compassionate man -- someone who contributed greatly to the College's work. For a brief moment he was also someone I turned to in my hour of need -- I had developed a lump in the inguinal area and, in the mens washroom at CPSO, he diagnosed my hernia! I know he never billed for that!

Condolence From: Dr. David Hodgkiss
Condolence: I am sorry to hear of Ross's passing. Even before I completed Medical School my father Dr. Roy Hodgkiss (fellow Founder of Scarborough General) would speak of Ross's abilities and character. When I joined the General Surgery Service at SGH in 1980 Ross provided me with advice and support. I had the good fortune to work with him as a colleague until he retired. He was clearly an outstanding Surgeon and an equally outstanding gentle man. He will be missed.

Condolence From: James
Condolence: My grandfather, Ross, was an amazing man. My memories of him at Beacon Hall will be preserved in my mind forever. As he was leaving Beacon Hall he was throwing out many things. I was lucky enough to be given to small plaster bust that I keep on my desk to this day. Now whenever I look at it I think of him, my grandfather. He left a legacy that makes me proud to call myself a Dobson.
