Dr. Russell M Pacquette, MD

Dr. Paquette quite literally saved my life in 2020. For over 20 years I had dealt with strange symptoms and flares and was told countless times by 100s of doctors that it was in my head or I was anxious or that I had fibromyalgia. In 2020 I decided to essentially start from scratch and get a new PCP. Dr. Pacquette kindly told me at my first visit “I don’t know what is wrong but I know something is and we will figure it out”. I just sat there and cried with relief. He began a series of tests and referrals and within 3-4 months I had a diagnosis. I’m not out of the woods but I am on a treatment plan with some of the best Dr.s in the country. I was so sad when Dr. Pacquette moved but my husband and I both have said we would fly to Houston if needed. He cares deeply, takes his time and truly listens!

Do not use this office. The front desk people are absurdly rude. I made an appointment for 9:00 got there at 8:45 and was told I had to reschedule because I was late. The rude front desk person asked for my paperwork but no paperwork from them was ever mailed or emailed. I was told I needed to wait 3 months for an appointment as a new patient even though this same doctor diagnosed my kidney cyst. The Orthopedic doctor he referred me to for a hip issue recommended surgery before ever seeing an X-ray or MRI. The whole candler system is awful and I’m sorry if this is your only option.

He has been my Dr since my move to Savannah. He is professional, explains things well, doesn't rush my appointments and always follows up.

Dr. Pacquette is now located in Savannah, GA. Very professional and takes time to listen to give the best care possible.
