“Helped me and my family.”
Dr. Russo injected my torn rotator cuff tendon with bone marrow stem cells and platelet rich plasma 3 months ago and almost back to doing everything I was doing before my injury. Then, my wife was referred for her low back disc issue and he did injection on her too and it helped! Now, my daughter is seeing him after a severe bike accident and he's been helping her with rehabilitation and pain management. Our family is very satisfied with the care and attention we receive at his clinic!

“excellent care”
I have received excellent care from all of the doctors, in the various types of procedures that I've had. I believe that there has also been an improvement in attitudes in general, in dealing so kindly with patients, and this has been on every level. It's like I have felt a shift toward the better in the whole environment. I truly appreciate the time that people take to treat me with care , and respect, and also care about more than just my pain, but me as a a whole. Thank you.

“Most pain eliminated - function restored!”
Dr. Russo was very clear about what was happening during my treatment, and talked through the entire procedure while he performed it, which I found very comforting.
At it's worst, my pain was at 10 out of 10. Now it's 0-2 depending on what I'm doing, and it hasn't even been 6 weeks since the procedure. I'm very pleased with the outcome!

“An Expert!”
I was diagnosed with femoral-acetabular impingement syndrome in the hip and the orthopedic surgeon wanted to a osteotomy surgery (breaking my hip and re-aligning it). I was hesitant about her plan and went to see Dr. Russo. He reviewed all my outside records and thought that my low back, SI Joint, and pelvis may be playing a role. He recommended PRP injections into the the hip and SI joint. I was referred to physical therapy. I'm doing much better and very thankful for all his help and expertise

“He's a straight shooter!”
Dr. Russo might not always tell you what you want to hear, but you'll never regret hearing it. He cuts to the chase and tells you things like it is. So far, the spinal injections are holding up good. I've repeated them twice and I can tell a certain improvement. Nice people and the staff go out of their way to make you feel like you get your questions answered and what not. Over all, I'd say its a 5 star experience at the pain clinic.

“Took excellent care of my mother!”
Mom slipped on ice and broke her hip. Orthopedic surgeon put a rod in it and she went to rehab facility for 3 weeks. After that she had bad sciatica and could barely do her PT. PCP referred us to Dr. Russo who worked up her back. She had a tail-bone epidural injection and got 100% relief. I don't know what we would have done without him and the Pain Management Clinic.
