First and foremost I would like to commend Dr Swanson on her honesty. I went in for smart lipo and being overweight she explained that I would NOT be stick thin after. The sculpting she performed on my body is WAY better then I ever expected. The whole experience was great from the professional staff to the great results Dr Swanson gave me.

The office wait time has nothing to do with her unethical practices. I had some breast implants removed. Told her I wanted the same size. Right after surgery, which I was still groggy, she said, "I didn't have the size you wanted, so I made them a little bigger." Did I just hear that? Should have asked for it in writing. Not a trustable Dr. This size was not good for my small frame. Crackpot Dr.

She was very professional, understanding, and her work was perfect! I would highly recommend her and if I decide to have another procedure, i'll definitely use her again.

I had a breast aug and initially I was so impressed with her: friendly and spent adequate time for me.... until I had my surgery. For my follow up visits, she was not thorough in her post op care and instructions for me . she gives you your booklet of instuctions prior to surgery, and she feels shes done her part. If u ask her a question she would answer it, but if u didn't , she would offer u suggestions, follow up on how your feeling. she just looked at my incisioned and rushed me away. you'd be lucky if she spent 2 mins with you. this is not joke. she would literally be heading to the door as im still talking trying to rush me so she could gon to her next surgery. All she wants is your money. Stay away....
