My Mom has not been able to get out of chair or into chair for over a month. She is most active person her age I have ever seen. Glad she has to wait over two months for Dr Russell to take 5 minutes to look at tests she had done. Hope you are having good holiday Dr Russell while someone is in pain and helped multiple people with illnesses . Hope that 5 minutes to give your opinion on tests was worth my Mother's pain for 2 months was worth your valuable 5 minutes of your precious time!!!!

I was sent by the defendents lawyer to see if my injuries were real. I found him to be rude, preoccupied. I guess when you get the big bucks to say what a lawyer wants you to you’ll say anything. I had already been assessed by the Lifemark rehabilitation clinic as having injuries but the was poop pahhd by him.It makes me wonder where he got his licence to practice medacine!

Very terrible misdiagnosed me, if you value your health I would recommend seeing another reumatologist

I really enjoy seeing Dr.Russel…He tries new things and gets me approved for new medications that would have cost me a fortune. He always reassures me and makes me feel confident. Always calls me with results right away if they are good or bad. I think the reason he is so good to me is because I follow his advice, I work and it all works for me. I like that he doesn’t show too much sympathy because I don’t care for someone to feel sorry for me, I care that they are honest and straight foward so I know what i need to do and fight harder.

I have seen Dr. Russel twice and both times found him to be arrogant, apathetic and rude. He acts like he has no idea what it’s like to be sick? With any illness a proper lifestyle such as: eating properly, excercising, stress reducing activities, and a proper nights sleep, are extremely important. I think he could and should find a better way to deliver this information. A little guidance would be the kind thing to do. However I understand how, being really smart in one area of your life could comprismise you in another… empathy.

I have been a patient of Dr. Russell’s for over ten years now. In the beginning I found it difficult to speak with him, I did not find him arrogant, but his demeanour was that of someone who was quiet, very knowledgeable and more of an old world type of doctor in his mannerisms. In the beginning when I was very ill, Dr. Russell and his nursing associate were very attentive to my needs and worked hard at trying to find the right medications for me. Over the years, I have learned that it best to be direct in your questioning to get the answers that you need, and I think that he appreciates that. I am on a healthier road now due to Dr. Russell’s plan of having me on the best and newest of medications available. With there being so many different Arthritis diseases out there, I feel that Dr. Russell is one of the best in his field and has my utmost respect. As a wise old person once told me, “God helps those who help themselves.”
