Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I have been with Dr. Swearingen since 2019 and I have only had fantastic visits with him. He takes his time during my appointments, genuinely cares about my well-being, and doesn’t make me feel rushed. Overall, super great guy who gets to know you and is easy going, especially great for someone who is nervous about an exam or appointment.

I had radial keratotomy eye surgery over 30 years ago, and now as a result would see 3 occurrences of all the digits on my alarm clock. Dr. Swearingen has fit me with glasses the past 10 years. He has always been able to perfectly correct this anomaly, the terrible headaches and associated dry eyes. Not only is he very knowledgeable and excellent, he is also very nice and truly cares about each of his patients. I am so grateful for Dr. Swearingen and the staff at WK Pierremont Eye Institute!!
