Starling Physicians: Christopher Russo

I have to have cataract surgery and my eye doctor sent me to see Doctor Russo. he is a great doctor and the whole staff is very friendly., after Doctor Russo examined my eyes and said I do need surgery I told him i was going on vacation and he asked when and I said in two weeks and he said not to worry they were booked for two months???? I just went for my eye scan and decided to go with the special lens that improves your eye sight to almost 20/20, but the machine for that eye scan was not working so I have to go back. I am glad it was not working because 1) it would have put a big strain on my budget and 2) i researched it online and found that there can be some problems like at night seeing halo's and also the colors could be slightly off. I am not saying it happens to everyone that gets the special lens but to some. And with my luck I would be one of those that have issues.. so I am going to tell them I just want the regular lens that Medicare pays for. I will have to wear reading glasses but that is okay. as long as I can see better then I can see right now. They in no way pressured me to get the better lens I just decided to do it myself. Its after I left that I had second thoughts about it and again the research I did on it helped me decide to go with the regular Len. .

Dr. Russo is top notch. Answers any questions you might have in plain language (no doctor-speak). Very personable. Overall great experience.

Very friendly and professional office. Would recommend friends and family for their vision needs. Keep up the good work!
