Dr. Russ has been practicing optometry since 2010. She enjoys working with all age groups but pediatrics holds a special spot in her heart. “I enjoy seeing the awe on a child’s face when I show them how their glasses will improve their vision. It’s such a wonderful feeling to help improve someone’s well being.”
