Medical specialist whose performance prevents pain during surgery (12)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

anaesthetist

(Other definitions for anaesthetist that I've seen before include "Number" , "Hospital theatre worker" , "One preparing patients for operations" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
