Patient Reviews
May 02, 2024
Dr Russell and his staff were awesome! I did 12 rounds of radiation and even though I was (really) scared (with tears flowing!) for every treatment, they were all there to comfort me every step of the way. It was nice knowing I wasn’t alone through the whole process. Not every one has compassion today, and cancer is scary, but their friendly faces made the whole process a lot easier. Definitely recommend him and his staff, hands down!
