About Us / Our Team
Kia Ora!
Welcome to Kiwi Paediatrics! We are a close knitted, compassionate, general community paediatrics office.
Our excellent doctors specialize in the medical, behavioural, and developmental care of your child. As
per Alberta Health’s policy, to see any of our paediatricians, all patients need a referral from a family
physician.
Our Mission
Our objective is to provide all families with excellent care that meets the expectations of those we treat.
We look forward to working with you and your child!
Our Team
Please note that we often have dogs present in the office. They are kept behind a closed door and while the children are allowed to see them at caregivers' discretion, this depends on how busy the clinic/staff are.
Dr. Dan Ross
Pediatrician
Dr. Ross is the Kiwi of the group with 20 years experience in developmental and behavioural pediatrics. His patience and compassion are a favourite among the staff and kids alike. He loves photography, and will spend hours taking pictures anywhere he can! However his favourite part of his job is to chat about video games (especially Halo) with his patients - where he learns all the best strategies!
Dr. Amanda Evans
Pediatrician
Dr. Evans is a pediatrician from England with 18 years of pediatrics under her belt. Since coming to Canada she has worked hard to learn all the important Canadian skills like ice skating and skiing. Her favorite toy to play with is Lego, which she loves to play with her son. She is a mother and mouseketeer all in one! Watch out when she heads to the Magic Kingdom, if she sees Mickey you better get out of her way!
