Dr. Susan Marie Swedenburg, MD

She said she read the chart the night before but "forgot" what it said. She was aggressive in tone of voice and body language when I clearly stated my preference to see a specific specialist. I couldn't get to her reasoning until I kept asking her questions. She didn't seem to like that I asked so many questions about this recent diagnosis. She needed to keep repeating that she's been practicing for 25 years. It's no wonder when she said I could get a same day appt because she has many openings. Terrible!

She does not allow patients to ask questions during physical- claims you have to schedule different spot if you have a question and then it is one question per appointment . Misdiagnosis of skin cancer as a rash so was not able to see specialist for two months and the cancer had become very large and painful. She is a terrible doctor - don’t waste your time and money.

Flat out said she did not have any time to see me. She was rude, wouldn't listen to my concerns or statements, and basically wasted my time. I took time off work to see her and she was the worst doctor I have ever seen.

When I asked health concerns during my physical she advised me to choose if I want to have a physical or a problem visit. I feel like part of the physical is to check out the things patients are concerned about. If they are issues that show red flags after inspection then set up a separate appointment for further examination. If they are things like prevention, then just give a quick talk or an info sheet on the topic. She was focused more on how to code my paper work than discuss my concerns. At the end she did check the things I asked and gave me some info on what I requested (which only took a few minutes of her time), but she made me feel bad for asking for advice.
