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.

I had been a long term patient of Dr Swisher. She always spent time with me, explained what she was doing and why. I always felt she had my best interest in mind while treating me and I thought her decisions were very appropriate. Her staff is awesome, I got to know them quite well. The have always been friendly and very helpful. I made a decision to go to another MD practice which was closer to my work, within walking distance and, therefore, more convenient. It had a good reputation. It was a foolish decision, made with too much haste. I regret that decision now. Even though the practice I go to now is ok, I am not nearly as satisfied as I had been with Dr Swisher. I would go back to Dr Swisher if it were even remotely possible. Lesson...avoid decisions made in haste... :(

You dont look at your patient and say " Everytime things go wrong you call me" .. WELL, YES, you are my Dr. right? and also,, " Worrying about your t-score is NOT your job" .. Its MY body and YES it is my job, cause YOU are NOT doing yours.... GET OUT OF MEDICINE would be my advice to her... This is after years of me spending thousands of my HARD-EARNED MONEY there , she talks to me like this.. She has lost it!!! SAD !!! She also treated my daugther with disrespect.. DID NOT DIAGNOIS her at all.... she walked around with pneumonia for 2 MONTHS... she don't care ... DO NOT GO TO THIS WOMAN !!!!!

Dr. Swisher's bedside manner is awful. Dr. Swisher is unprofessional, hasty, a bad listener, apathetic, vain, and scatterbrained. I would never recommend Dr. Swisher to anyone.

Have seen her for 10 years and the last few she's gotten more and more uncaring. More worried about the dollar and getting in and out as fast as possible. TolD me one thing at a time, when I asked for a referral to a Dermatologist for a spot on my nose. I just got a referral from a friend instead and glad I did since it was skin cancer and had to be removed.

Dr. Swisher has been my primary care physician for over a decade. She is knowledgeable, direct, and thorough, and I have recommended her to my family and friends. She maintains high standards for her practice.
