Dr. Matthew Russo is a third-generation orthopedic surgeon specializing in total hip and knee replacement surgery. He feels very grateful to have the opportunity to serve the Phoenix community as an orthopedic surgeon, just as his father and grandfather have done, for over 30 years. Dr. Russo believes it is essential to listen to patients and to treat them just as he would his own family members. He was specifically drawn to hip and knee replacements because he finds it rewarding to play a role in the transformation of patients whose lives have been limited by their condition and to help return them to the everyday activities and lifestyle they previously enjoyed. Dr. Russo received his undergraduate education from the University of Notre Dame prior to his completion of medical school at the University of Arizona College of Medicine in Tucson. There, he became a member of a select group of medical students known as the Gold Humanism Honor Society representing humanistic attitudes in medicine. He then completed his residency at Georgetown University Hospital in Washington, D.C., where he received multiple awards for resident teaching in medical education. Dr. Russo later completed a fellowship in Adult Reconstruction with Anderson Orthopaedic Clinic in Alexandria, Virginia, where he performed over 600 hip and knee replacements with a particular focus and research in multimodal pain management strategies to enhance recovery. He also completed a fellowship in Adult Total Joint Reconstruction at the Anderson Clinic. He has experience with computer-assisted navigation and prefers the anterior approach for total hip replacement. Dr. Russo is an active member of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons and the American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons.

Dr. Matt Russo is a gifted surgeon surpassed only by his ability to relate to patients, helping me understand the problem and the solution. Outstanding physician!
Great job! I feel 100% better. I don't know why I waited so long!
I am very happy with Dr. Matthew Russo. He is kind and takes time to listen to his patients. He replaced both of my knees and did an amazing job!
the kind of Doctor you feel you are in extremely good. Hands. He explains what needs to be done and shows you . All very understandable !!!
I was suffering from hip pain for almost 5 years to the point that I could not sleep at night. The whole idea of having a total hip replacement did not appeal to me even though I was constantly in pain and limping badly. I consulted with three renowned surgeons in Phoenix but It was Dr. M. Russo who I picked. I did a lot of research on him and he was referred to me by one of my business clients that was very happy with her hip replacement. I had my total hip replacement 6 weeks ago and I was walking immediately after the surgery and without any walker or Caine in a week. It has been 6 weeks now and I started walking one mile a couple of times a week since Thanksgiving without hardly any pain or discomfort in consideration that it takes at least 3-6 months for total healing. I had my second post surgery visit today and Dr. Russo told me that everything looks great after my X-Ray review. I am very thankful and greatfull for Dr. Russo and would recommend him 1000%.
Best orthopedic surgeon ever.Always takes the time to explain all your concerns.Very caring .If anyone wants to be in the best hands Dr RUsso is the Dr for yoy
Dr. Russo is outstanding. I highly recommend anyone needing his services to make an appointment. He is professional, nice, thorough, and is an excellent doctor and a wonderful person. He is a very caring doctor and an amazing surgeon. He also has a great staff, thank you.
He was excellent at explaining complexed procedures in layman's terms. He has a really easy manor and is very patience.
Outstanding TKA surgeon. Dr. Matthew Russo has a booklet that details recovery with best outcomes for managing pain and physical therapy. He will be performing surgery on my other knee in the near future. I highly recommend him!
