When he decided to go into medicine, he chose pediatrics because of the relationships providers are able to build with patients. "It's so fun because you see them from the beginning to all development stages," he says. "Nothing more precious in life than kids and to trust their health with someone else, getting to build that relationships with families and patients, it's just so rewarding." Dr. Cross is a school board member for a Morton community school district.
