Patient Reviews
Jul 20, 2017
I've been seeing Dr. Russell over 20 years. He's always been good to me. And when I don't see him I see his NP John Aldridge, and I'm pleased with his doctoring skills. I'm just as comfortable with him as I am Dr. Russell. Now as for the receptionists, some of them could use a lil training on how to be nicer to patients. One girl is rude and thinks she can over ride what the doctors say. Besides that I usually enjoy my visit with all the staff there at Community Medical Arts.
