The core of a doctor patient relationship should be communication. Unfortunately his 'bedside manner' left me feeling patronized. My VERY FIRST VISIT... Was filled with him not allowing me to speak, dismissing my questions and concerns as unimportant, and in one case nonexistent even! For example, when I told Dr. Swanson that I felt sick and could taste sick in my throat, his reply to this was..."No you can't." Then said it was just allergies. After being dismissed completely ... I was prescribed more of a controlled medicat... read more

I just wanted to make a positive comment about our family doctor whom has taken care of my children since they were babies. Now my children are strong men in the United StatesAir Force, and wouldn't be there without Doctor Swanson's great care all those years. So THANK YOU and your staff. We love you and your staff.

Like many said before, I went in to see him and all he did was prescribe drugs to treat symptoms, never trying to figure out the underlying cause. He is nothing more than an urgent care doctor, and not a good one at that. If you are looking for an actual family physician that gets to know you, DO NOT go to Dr. Swanson.

It's a hassle changing doctors, which is why I have put up with swansons indifference and poor medical care for too long. The last time I was there, he kept me waiting 25 minutes past my appoinment, and I WAS THE ONLY PATIENT in the building. I overheard him chatting with a family friend, a staff memeber a sale girl. He saw me for less than 5 minutes and charged my insureance company 140.00 for the visit. He is definately in it for the money,not out of concern for his patients. His staff is rude, and actually has charged my ... read more

Went to see Dr. Swanson 3 or 4 years ago. I was not impressed. My opinion was that his history taking was robotic, incomplete and unimaginative and that what meager physical exam was perfunctory at best and did not well represent his training. He did not suggest a follow up appointment, which I now assess in retrospect as a blessing. I am a retired medical professional and my assessment took into consideration my own experience in the field. I will not go back. I suspect that the economic pressures of maintaining a practice ... read more

My 9 year old grandson has been seeing Dr. Swanson since birth. We have adopted him and because of several mental health issues, he is on Medicaid. He sees Dr. Swanson once a year. When trying to make an appointment twice, the nurse who answered the phone was extremely rude and said he no longer takes medicaid and we could not make an appointment. When asked to speak to Dr. Swanson, she informed he he was way too busy and suggested I find another doctor! HOW RUDE!!! We have helped Dr. Swanson with referrals to special doctor... read more

Dr. Swanson is an awesome doctor I have suffered from several long term illnesses including migraines in which he has always been very helpful in managing my pain. He is never in a hurry when I am seen and pays close attention to my symptoms. Give him a chance he is well worth it. I have written Directors before about bad doctors and nurses and this is not one of them.
