Dr.Swain always listens to what pain is occurring, does her best to alleviate pain, and has great tips on stretches. I always feel so much better when I leave my appointment with her. I highly recommend Dr.Swain!

Review for Dr. Swain

KVH has a hard time attracting and keeping quality physicians. Really hope Dr. Thomas sticks around. He actually listens to patients and works with them to engage in their own health care.

Swedish employees were great and informed. They tried to snowball me. They found answers for my questions if answers were not immediately at hand.
