Dr Russakoff was my two daughters doctor. he was always so gentle and loving. i am devastated to hear of his departure. he will truly be missed.
Dr. Russakoff was with my boys from day 2. My oldest just turned 17 and my other will be 10. He was always great with them and he will truly be missed. He was a great pediatrician! Thoughts and prayers to all his family and friends.
I've only just heard! Dr. Russakoff was my children's doctor. He was so good with them. My son was not very responsive to people he did not know well, but Dr. Russakoff was gentle and able to connect with him. I am so thankful for his work. You all have my condolences. -Linda Feltheim
Dear Russakoff family, I'm so sorry for your loss, Dr. Russakoff also took care of my son & daughter and we are sadden. He took very good care of my children and I had the most respect and trust in him. My children are older now but we never forgot about him. While waiting for him in the room I would read his certificates, diplomas etc on the wall & think of how proud his parents must be! What an accomplishment! Prayers to you all

We had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Russakoff 13 years ago when my eldest son became his patient. As our family grew he cared for our younger children as well. He was a great physician who my husband and I entrusted to care for those we loved the most. I will miss his warm and quiet demeanor, my husband will miss their talks about the Braves, and I am sure my children will miss the comfort they had built with him as well. May your soul rest in peace.
We send our sincerest condolences to all of his family, friends, and colleagues.
