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 first visited Dr. Swanson because I had a freak accident leaving me with a blood clot in my leg. Upon further inspection, they found a cancerous spot on my bladder. My vascular surgeon recommended me to Dr. Swanson. He has been nothing but fantastic! Professional, extremely knowledgeable and an exemplary surgeon. 3 years later, I am still cancer free thanks to Dr. Swanson and his excellent team!

Dr Swanson is the best. He is professional and I do not have any doubts about his experience at all. I am lucky to have found Dr.Swanson who also maintains an office at the world class Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale AZ.

Do not trust Swanson. Does not explain prostate issues. Will scare you with "you have enlarged prostate". But not tell you all guys over 65 have enlarged prostates. He refuses to do simple, non-evasive, new cancer blood tests. He will talk you into taking prostate samples. He will get you on the operating table, then tell you what he will do to you. He told me he was going to take 16 samples when I was on the table, and I said "books say 8 to 12 samples." Then he cut me anyway.

Dr. Swanson is a very experienced, kind and caring doctor. He is highly regarded in our family. We travel to Mayo for me to see Dr. Swanson. He has gone above and beyond to make sure that we understood everything associated with my procedures and problems. Thank you Dr Swanson. Barbara Perry
