Patient Reviews
Mar 06, 2024
Well I’m getting old. But want to continue to be active and to work. I’m an RN. Worked CCU, Step down, med surg,, and overflow patients in Fast track ED. 21 yr hot working as an RN. So with DDD, spinal stenosis, arthritis, and a few injuries leading to bulging discs x3, I place the future of my active life in Dr. Scott Russo’s capable hands. I’m currently heeling, post op about 2.5 weeks and in a couple weeks will start PT. I would highly recommend him and his staff at Blodgett Hospital. I’m confident that I will recover well and be better than ever! Thank you to Dr. Russo and his explanation of my procedure, online education given by way of videos before my surgery and with my follow up after surgery. . Also thank you to the exceptional office staff at OAM who returned all my calls and helped me with my abundant questions and prepared me for this big event in my life. . My overall experience was one of having confidence, thankfulness for him and his exceptional surgical skills.
