DR. Swales is the best care provider that I've ever had. He reviewed my history and was very interested in not only how my cancer treatment went but also how I was doing in general. His friendly demeanor makes him extremely easy to talk to and to be candid about very personal Issues. I cant say enough good about DR Swales and would highly recommend him to anyone searching for a primary care doctor.
