Welcome!
I am Dr Martin Russell, a Medical Doctor from Adelaide University (MB,BS 1993) who then trained as a General Practitioner (FRACGP).
In my private time, I enjoy regular sport, and time with my wife and three young children. Alongside that, I have a passion for my work, where I seek to be “the difference that makes a difference” in people’s lives.
In the past, I have worked with children (at the Women’s and Children’s Hospital), Aboriginal people (in Port Augusta), in country general practice (Mt Gambier and Cummins), in community psychiatry (SA Mental Health Service), and with the terminally ill and dying (at the Daw House Hospice.)
In 1998 though, I left general practice to further pursue my interest in psychological therapy and change.
From there, I have gone on to establish my own solo practice and www.DrMartinRussell.com, an international Self Help website with most visitors designed to take my experience beyond the 4 walls of my office.

Since finishing my degrees, I have trained in and beyond Adelaide with a diverse range of experts including:
