Christina Pike, ARNP

Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner

  • Grey LinkedIn Icon

I am always learning. ALWAYS! My open tabs on my computer are full of journal articles I want to read. Learning brings me joy. This is partly why working in psychiatry is so rewarding. Every person is a unique opportunity for me to think creatively. Not just because everyone is different but each person wants something different. I am also willing to be wrong, learn from that, and change. I can do better, always. Just like all of you, I am constantly learning and growing. That being said I believe that there are hundreds of ways to wellness and all we need to do is find the right ones for you. I do not take a traditional view of psychiatry but instead I see it as just one of the many tools we have that contribute to overall health. My work is a collaborative mix of art and science with the understanding that the most important part of the equation is what you desire, as you are the foremost authority on the life you would like to cultivate. To help people reach their goals I use a mix of genetics, nutrition, herbs, medications, and labs. I enjoy working in collaborative environment to bring the highest quality of care possible. That means that all you have to do is bring your desire to change and your dedication to the process.

Dr. Anthony Russo MD
Telemedicine Urgent Care Physician

Tony is an experienced and pragmatic emergency physician whose practice style is exemplified by “if it doesn’t change your treatment, don’t order the test.” Having over 60,000 patient encounters under his belt, he recognizes the financial cost and side effects of excessive/unnecessary treatment. His healthcare journey began as an EMT in college and a stint in nursing school before medical school. The variety of emergency medicine had great appeal and led to residency training in EM and maintenance of board certification for over 25 years. Over the past 6 years, he shifted to urgent care and acted as medical director for two clinics.

Tony enjoys skiing and snowboarding with his wife and three children, fitness (CrossFit Level I certified), and metalwork. He’s currently trying his hand at kiteboarding when able to get to tropical waters. He’s also a damn fine cook and mixologist!

Anthony’s Philosophy of Medicine

My philosophy of medicine has evolved over 30 years and is simply less is more; less testing, less pharma. Everything we order, whether it is a lab, imaging, or medications, has the potential for unintended consequences.
