Patient Testimonials

“I really liked Cory. He was knowledgeable, caring and explained options. He made me feel comfortable & really listened to me. I felt like I was able to participate and decide on the best care for me going forward.”

Barb W.

“My knee replacement was 200% successful, all due to Dr Russell and his amazing physical therapy team. Due to injury as a kid my knees have been bone on bone for over 30 years. I’m now pain free and able to move better than I did as a twenty year old.”

Brenda B.

“I have had a great experience. They have been very helpful and concerned about my injury getting better. I highly recommend Orthopedic Associates of Wausau.”
