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.

The best of the best!!!
I can’t say enough great things about Dr. Fran Swartz From the moment I met her, I felt heard, understood, and cared for. She goes above and beyond—not only in her surgical expertise, which is outstanding—but in the way she connects on a personal level. She’s compassionate, attentive, and truly takes the time to make sure you feel comfortable and informed every step of the way.Her ability to combine knowledge and skill with genuine warmth makes all the difference. It’s rare to find a surgeon who is not only technically exceptional but also deeply human in her approach. I’m incredibly grateful for the care I received and would recommend her to anyone without hesitation.
