Jean Russo, NP

“I have always been drawn to caring for children and their families. Children have an innocence and resilience that provides so much perspective on life and keeps me grounded. l learn so much from my patients and colleagues, and I truly enjoy going to work each day.”

Russo is a board-certified pediatric nurse practitioner. She specializes in pediatric primary care for newborns to teens.

Russo enjoys partnering with families and educating parents to make the best healthcare plan for their children. She feels having this knowledge allows parents not to worry as much and feel more comfortable caring for their children.

She received her nurse practitioner training at Rush University.

Outside of work, she enjoys spending time with her husband and 2 sons. They love being outdoors, hiking, going for walks, riding bikes and playing games in their yard. She enjoys swimming and was a competitive swimmer.
