We are Russell Medical...

and this is our corner of the world. This is our place, where the last of the Appalachians smooth in to hills, and loblolly pines and chestnut oaks commingle, where it’s cool in the winter and hot in the summer, and the air is clean and crisp. We are Russell Medical, and this is our corner of the world, where hard-working famililes of all walks of life, choose to live, away from city stife and noise, where Saturday barbecue with friends in town is every bit as excellent as fine cuisine, and the glittering waters of our nearby lake bring visitors from miles around. We are Russell Medical and this is our corner of the world, where families discover doctors and nurses as excellent as any in the state, and the embrace of world-class care is as close to home as a trip to the grocery store, where the continuity of care isn’t lost in exhausting miles of road, but just down the street. We are here for the families, beset by the sudden terror of cancer, and young mothers, starting a family, nervous and alert. We are here for the laborer, injured on the job, for the lake visito, the neighbor from a town nearby, the heart patient, and the injured child. We are here for the sleepless, the wounded, and overweight, and the fit. We are here for the lung patient, the kidney patient, the vascular patient, and the caregiver. But most important of all is simply this: we are here. For you see, we are Russell Medical, and this is our corner of the world.
