Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

She’s incredibly knowledgeable, bright, has phenomenal bedside manner, answered all of my many questions over many appointments and really was a great listener. She’s empathetic and a skilled surgeon. If you’re lucky enough to get in with her, don’t hesitate. Do it! I’ve been passed along now to a new GI Oncologist and she is even planning to attend a part of this second surgery. She’s a complete gem.

Dr. Swisher performed a complex surgery of a rare cancer on my sister. She had an amazing bedside manner and provided great information, referrals for additional care and had a supportive and warm personality. I would highly recommend.

Disappointed. I am fat but I would expect a doctor to give me supportive medical care not fat shame me... She didn't say much or listen much, but she made me feel repulsive and devoid of any human dignity.
