Pain Management
Dr. Ross Vogelgesang, known locally as “Dr V.,” joined Mason Health in 2021; however, he is not new to medicine or the Northwest. He is a proud Texas native and has come to enjoy the cooler weather and Great Northwest abundance of greenery and dynamic topography.
Dr. Vogelgesang attended the University of Texas, with the Phan II Honors Liberal Arts Degree. After completing his tertiary education, he moved back to his hometown of San Antonio, Texas, for his formal medical education, training in the University of Texas medical system. His first post-graduate medical year was at the University of Tennessee, in Internal Medicine. From this, he completed his final stages of training at Oregon Health Science University in Anesthesiology with a concentration in Pain Management. Later, he completed an informal certification in Addiction Medicine. His training has been focused on learning with a goal of providing quality care for his patients. Over the years, he has broadened his skillset to offer more services to the community.
Dr. Vogelgesang enjoys collaborating with others to better improve outcomes for patients with pain. At Mason Health, he will see patients who experience chronic pain and post-procedure pain and assist them through medical pain management. He is specially trained with Abbott DRG placements for focal neuropathic pain therapy, for SPRINT nerve stimulation to treat mononeuropathies, and for Genesys SI Joint fusion for sacroiliitis.
Dr. Vogelgesang's personal interests outside of work include horseback riding, bicycling, water and snow-skiing, boating, reading, studying, and spending time with his family.
