Numerous surgeries with Dr. Swanson. Hernia and soroma repairs. Some of the hernias continually having to be repaired as well as the soroma returning. Dr. Swanson does not always answer emergency calls. Ran two hours late for one of my surgeries the hospital staff could not locate him anywhere. Also, he had Dr. Daniels assist him with one of my surgeries and I was not told until afterwards. I would not recommend Dr.Swanson.

I had to have my lapband removed so he had to undo what my original surgeon botched up. He was very concerned about my comfort and I always felt at ease and that I was in good hands. I couldn't have asked for things to go any better than they did.
