Dr. Russell grew up in Bucks County Pennsylvania with his three siblings and a menagerie of small animals from cats and dogs to chinchillas, snakes and birds which helped him to learn to love all types of animals from a young age. He attended Ursinus College where he majored in Biology and Chemistry and then attended Ross University where he obtained his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine, completing his clinical year down at the Oklahoma State University. Dr. Russell enjoys spending his free time seeing live music, reading leather bound books, playing video games, and having his heart broken by the Philadelphia sports teams. He also enjoys going on hikes with his labradoodle, Hildy, and volunteering as a youth wrestling coach in his hometown. He is passionate about internal medicine and his favorite part about his job is helping animals and people equally.
