Jan 05, 2022
I have been with Dr. Swearingen since 2019 and I have only had fantastic visits with him. He takes his time during my appointments, genuinely cares about my well-being, and doesn’t make me feel rushed. Overall, super great guy who gets to know you and is easy going, especially great for someone who is nervous about an exam or appointment.
