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.

This guy is the worst human being ever. My mother was his patient when he worked in Nevada at a nursing home in Las Vegas. Dr. Swenson was run out of Nevada for inappropriately interacting with a patient in a nursing home through touch, and now he is running a nursing home business in Washington state placing many vulnerable seniors at risk. He has angry outbursts when family asks simple questions and gives patients family’s the “heebee-jeebees”. All nursing homes should know about what this man did in Nevada and the predatory behavior. Do not let him or his group Swenson Healthcare or US Post Acute Care into nursing homes. He is worse than COVID-19.

Yes, stay far away from this doctor, does not care about his patients. Fake smiles, fake hugs. This man will not listen to what you say, integrity is absent. Stay away from Darren Swenson and Swenson healthcare. BEWARE he treats his employees worse than he treats his patients. Threats and malignant work environment!

Having worked for him personally as well as speaking with others in the medical community, this is not the type of man you can trust as a human being nor as a physician.

He left me feeling uncomfortable, and with more questions then answers. I would not recommend him to my friends or family. He does not respect anyones opinions when it comes down to the care of the patient.
