My husband Bill has been a patient of Dr. Chris Russell's since Dr Russell opened his practice in Huntsville, AL. Now, we would follow him anywhere.

When my husband was in hospital Dr Russell came in one Saturday. He said he thought they were going to start physical therapy on him that day. I told him my husband's walker was in parking garage.

Because of his wonderful knowledge, excellent diagnosis, prompt response and care for his patients she had no… See more

At 68 and having been your patient for less than a year, I can say without question that you know me better and have a more thorough understanding of my healthcare needs than any of the doctors I have had as primary care physicians in the past. My last two primary care physicians took care of me for 12… See more

To know one life has breathed easier, this is to have succeeded. Ralph Waldo Emerson.
Dr. Russell has helped me to be able to breathe easier. Having a chronic illness is difficult on so many levels, and the compassion and faithfulness he continues to display is priceless.
