Insurance listings are subject to change without prior notice. Please call your physician's office or your health or insurance plan to verify coverage information prior to scheduling your visit or procedure. Not all members participating in contracted networks have "in network" access. In network participation may change from time to time without prior notice. Independent providers (which could include, for example only, anesthesiologists, radiologists, pathologists, emergency medicine physicians, advance practice professionals, and other independent providers of health care services) may deliver part of your care, and such providers may be considered out-of-network on your health and insurance plans even if the Facility may be considered in network. If you desire additional information as to the providers who may be involved in providing your care, you can either ask your treating provider (who may know some of the specialists or groups who could be involved) or you can request a list of Facility-based physician groups by calling the following toll free number: (877) 810-0372. This list is updated annually and is subject to change without prior notice.

Dr. Russell is a very intelligent doctor, she cares about her patients takes good care of them, (actually, I feel for me, she really has gone above and beyond). I certainly am not the smartest person in town but you can bet your bottom dollar that if I did not feel as though Dr. Russell was not being thorough - I would not have been going back to her for years.

Dr. Russell has provided excellent professional and personal care for many years. She never rushes the time with her patient. As a result of this interaction, she invariably runs late. I always build in at least a 30 min delay before expecting to see her and am pleasantly surprised on that occasional time when she is not that late.
