I feel very comfortable that the care and information I receive is accurate. Dr. Russo is extremely knowledgeable and thorough. I definitely trust him and appreciate his care. I don't say these things lightly. I've been treated by many physicians, some good, some not so much. I feel fortunate to have Dr Russo as my PCP. I know I'm in great hands!

he did not even review my test results on a serious heart issue I have been diagonsed with nor did he listen to my heart, look at my eyes, ears, etc. Ask me any questions about my current health. He instead took personal phone calls and tried to badger me into getting vacines.
