Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Love Dr. RUSS. He did my left knee in April this year. I drive from Darlington, an hour drive because he came highly recommended and I am so pleased with my recovery from my left knee. Dr. Russ is wonderful and all the staff has been great as well.

Was sorted disappointed because I was unable to get help for my knee. Everyone can't lose weight just like that. But I reckon he knows best.

I have been seeing Dr Rush for over 4 years. He sees to my every need now just as he did the first day I stepped into his office. I am so thankful out paths crossed. He is a fine, considerate Christian man. I would and do recommend him to everyone I meet. He has taken care of my friends and church family and we all think the world of him.

Dr Rush, seemed pre occupied when discussing my current medical condition. I have got conflicting diagnosis from Dr Rush to the point in which I dont have any idea on what's going on with my problem. Considering seeking another opinion.

Dr. Rush is not only an extremely able and talented surgeon and physician, he is also a fine, caring Christian man. I have had two hip replacements and could have not been more pleased with the results. If you are in need of a hip or knee replacement (some from my church have had knee replacements), I can wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Rush without hesitation or reservation. I count myself fortunate to have had access to Dr. Rush at OrthoCarolina Laurinburg.

Dr. Rush has treated and performed many surgeries for me over the years. He recommends less invasive treatment plans and explains my options as we go along. His post surgery care is just as through. I moved and chose my insurance based on his practice. I currently drive 4 hours round trip because I trust his honestly and level of care. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

On time, polite, professional, friendly. treats you like you are a person, not a checkbook. Looks you in the eye and shakes your hand. I have been dealing with MDs and surgeons for 38 years. He is by far the best both in personal/professional action and in quality of care. Highest possible recommendation.
