As an analyzer (pardon the pun) of all things, I chose Dr. Russ based on medical doctors recommendations and my visits with him. Post-op surgery was flawless. ZERO pain! Never had my pain meds filled. He is a compassionate doctor who is very knowledgeable in his field. The best part is that he is personable and has a sense of humor, and isn't stuffy as some doctors can be. *No long waiting times for your appointments! Friendly and knowledgeable staff <3 His surgery rooms are down the hall from his office and his surgery staff is WONDERFUL. The "Cocktail Nurse" /pre-op med was the bomb. Anesthesiologist was excellent as well. All around- a great experience...IF you must have that kind of experience- choose Dr. Russ! 👍
