Amazing Doctor. So patient, gentle, personable and attentive.
Dr. Russell is by far the best healthcare provider I’ve seen in my 43 years. He was extremely friendly, very thorough, and truly understanding. He took time to listen, explained everything clearly, and showed excellent manners and professionalism. I left feeling cared for and confident in the direction he gave me. It’s rare to find someone in healthcare who goes above and beyond the way he does.
