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.

We have since moved away, but Dr. Swersky was our pediatrician 13 years ago. We still miss him, he was the most caring, thorough, observant doctor. He is genuinely interested in children, how they grow and develop. Every doctor should be like Dr. Charles Swersky.

He is extremely confident and caring and always puts my kids at ease. He does not rush you lets you ask aSK AS MANY QUESTIONS AS needed. Always manages to let my children come in immediately if they are ill. Also his nurses and staff are excellent, fast, remember you and with help you with anything you may need before you complete your visit. I love them all!
