He left me with no personal communications for 9 days after he had completed a surgery for something I thought was routine, he then he called my son and told him I had cancer. He never spoke with me until 9 days later. When i did meet with him he spent a total of 6 minutes laying out a plan that was life changing with no options and without my input. He is Arrogant and worst communication skills ever!

The best. Best bed side manner, best explanations, best at family involvement and best surgeon. Had been to a couple of other surgeons and by far, Dr. Swenson had the most respectful, understanding and honest approach. Trusting him with my health was the easiest, clearest choice.

Mental illness is very complex. Seriously? A Colon Rectal surgeon is a Psychiatrist? What kind of training does he have? I am skeptical to try any pf these doctors who have added Psychiatry to their lists. I really need someone highly trained in therapy and psychopharmacology.
