About Dr. Russo
I specialize in orthopaedic surgery. In high school, I played football at Rummel, and I wanted to return to the sport as soon as possible after my injury. This is what sparked my interest in orthopedics. I became a healthcare provider because I found science fascinating, and I felt I could relate to all other athletes that had been injured. Patients can count on me for extraordinary care because I believe treating my patients goes beyond a medical diagnosis: I want to understand each person I care for.
My little something extra
I started a health energy drink company called GRIND, which gives you energy and supplements for your joints!
