Shellie Russell-Skerski, MD, provides a full range of health care to children from birth through age 18.
She decided on her future profession in third grade, when she dressed up as a doctor. Her parents were teachers, so pediatrics was a natural choice.
Dr. Russell-Skerski enjoys learning about patients and their families and watching them grow. Before joining Samaritan, she practiced in a small town in rural Ohio for 20 years and was looking for a similar setting in Oregon to be near family.
In her free time, Dr. Russell-Skerski is learning Italian and belongs to a book club. She has climbed Mount Kilimanjaro and enjoys being outdoors, playing piano, knitting and spending time with family and pets.

The clinician’s star review is based on surveys sent to randomly selected patients following care. The patient satisfaction survey includes five questions about a patient’s experience with their clinician with responses averaged for the star score. Patient comments are from the question "How likely would you be to recommend this provider to your family and friends."
I would love to keep my child with Shellie Russell-Skerski.
First time we had seen this pediatric dr and she was WONDERFUL!!
I am very happy with my child's doctor Shelley Russell-Skirsky she is kind, listens, understands what we want, has compassion, empathy and helpful ideas or solutions.
Made us feel very comfortable and it was like talking to another parent instead of talking to a textbook like some doctors sometimes do.
She was awesome
I would recommend the doctor but not the clinic
We adore her! She always asks questions and listens intently. I never feel rushed or unimportant. She asks questions to both me and my child making her feel a part of the decision making process as well. Just can't say enough
Dr. S has provided excellent care. Her compassion and trust has allowed our little one to receive the medicine and care she needed when other providers would have swept it under the rug. We're so grateful.
She was super nice & helpful.
