I may have chosen Dr. Russell initially simply because we have the same last name, but he turned out to be best dentist I've ever had! Dr. Russell and his hygenist (his wife Linda) are super nice and very easy going. I had not been for a check up in 7 years and although I did end up having one cavity, I was never made to feel that I was a bad patient for doing so. Both Dr. Russell and Linda are very personable and take time to ask you about yourself and of course if you have any dental concerns. Dr. Russell recommended that I have the tooth with the cavity pulled (by a dental surgeon) since it was in a hard to reach spot on my wisdom tooth. I was nervous about doing so and Linda made me feel better by letting me know that the referred Dr. has worked on themselves as well as their children.
