Robert C Russell

First at the consult, the student assistant advised that a deep plane lift would best address cert issues discussed. At preop, suddenly Dr. Russell lied and said deep planes are no longer performed ANYWHERE (and for the same price previously quoted) he would only perform a SMAS lift (which is less thorough and generally less expensive). It did not fix what I wanted fixed. With other work performed he created additional asymmetries Go elsewhere if you want someone who knows how to properly and best remediate scars and properly fat graft rather than create worse abnormalities by ineffective methods that are more invasive and pushed at last min. contrary to prior discussion. I was better off when I walked in the door than afterwards. A month later, I could not see normally from both eyes and had pain. Total waste of money pain and suffering. MAJOR disappointment additional asymmetries, work that needs undone and corrected not in small part due to the lies told by that office.

The worst possible experience..had hand surgery in June…5 weeks of therapy and exercise my hand still doesn’t work..I still keep up with the exercises but having no luck….he is a teaching doctor and doesn’t do the surgery. His resident does it. Dr Russell is there as an instructor.

Had surgeries done in early 2000s. Now I live in Vegas and I'm going to call Dr. Russell again and fly back to Springfield because he is the best.

Mr. Russell gave me back my life and what he did for me was not short of a miracle. Thank you so much.

Dr. Russell is the best hand surgeon there is in Springfield, Illinois. I would highly recommend him.

I feel like my life has been ruined by the side effects of the bad surgery he performed.

My surgery was a panniculectomy. Turned out great excellent docotor
