He grew up in Oklahoma City and moved to Jacksonville in 1999. Specializing in Companion Animals and having a special interest in Pain management, Dr. Russell is dedicated to providing the highest standard of care for his patients' comfort and well-being. He strongly believes that communication with his clients is key. Dr. Russell is very interactive and dedicated to his staff, and in turn, they are dedicated to him. When not practicing, Dr. Russell stays busy as a husband and father of four. He has a Boston terrier named "Bacon," a Yorkie mix, "Dixie," and if you have been in the clinic, you probably already know his black Labrador, "Rona." and the newest addition to the family (pictured) is “Charlotte” a Cavalier King Charles!
