Scott Russi, MD FACS
Dr. Scott Russi is a physician who understands that healing begins when medicine looks beyond symptoms and supports the body’s natural balance. Dr. Russi founded Vita Health to focus on prevention, vitality, and wellness — medicine that helps patients feel their best at every stage of life.
Classical healthcare training
Dr. Russi graduated from of The Ohio State University College of Medicine, completing residencies in both internal medicine and general surgery. During his 34-year career in the Air Force, he served as colonel and master clinician, led medical teams across the globe, and helped establish Oregon’s first ACS-verified Level II Trauma Center.
A focus on healthy aging
After over three decades as a trauma and general surgeon in the United States Air Force and civilian hospitals, Dr. Russi's journey into restorative medicine began when both he and his wife experienced the limitations of conventional care firsthand.
When his wife entered menopause, she suffered from weight gain, fatigue, bloating, and severe hot flashes that traditional medicine never relieved. Around the same time, Dr. Russi was diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder that caused weakness, muscle spasms, and chronic fatigue.
After multiple treatments without improvement or answers, he discovered Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) and began testosterone therapy himself, while also supporting his wife’s treatment.
“That single change—balancing one key hormone—transformed how we felt. It reignited our health, energy, and clarity in a way no prescription ever had.”
Dr. Russi has since become a certified age management physician (AMMG) and a World Link medical–certified provider in BHRT.
