About Us

Welcome to our practice. I am Dr. Karlene Ross, and as a Board Certified Family Medicine physician, it has been my privilege to care for the health needs of entire families for more than 10 years. Family Medicine covers a wide array of areas, including pediatrics, adult medicine, women’s health, and geriatrics. I focus on diabetes management, adolescent medicine, women’s health, and travel medicine.

I’m not just your doctor: I’m your partner. I’ll work to empower you: educating you and getting you actively involved in your personal care. Together we make a powerful team for your healthier life.

And when you need a referral I’m still involved, ensuring you are treated thoroughly and coordinating conversations between doctors. The only thing better than a doctor who’s concerned about you is having a team of healthcare professionals working on a common goal: your well-being.

Going to the doctor’s office can be stressful. That’s why, at Waldorf Primary Care, we do things differently. Our professional and courteous staff will treat you with respect. Your appointment time will be honored. The doctor will actually listen to you. And you’ll have plenty of time to ask questions, get answers, and feel better.

Whenever you need us for after-hours appointments, urgent care, or routine check ups, we’ll be your medical home. From basic health care to patient education, we strive to help you feel your best.

Think of us as part of your family, because that’s how we treat you.
