Very nice caring Man ... Seemed very engaged, not rushed like most Docs these days .... Kinda old school .... Glad I selected him as I hadn't been to a Doctor in a LONG while and was nervous ... His Nurse was very nice as well

Refreshingly accommodating. I found Dr. Russ to be personal, interested in my needs and furthermore listen to me and had the common sense to agree with me on increasing the strength of some of my current RX's - a task I have been attempting over the last 7 years but to no avail.
He was extremely thorough and his staff was friendly and supportive.
My take : OUTSTANDING

September 19, 2017Dawn A.Verified patient
This Dr. seems to be a "nickle and dimer"..Wants to charge for everything. Fee for this and a fee for that. A fee to get your own medical broke the camels back and the bank..
