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.

Shall always be grateful for the care my husband received from Dr. Swisher. My husband had esophageal cancer in 2006 resulting in weeks of treatment before Dr. Swisher operated. The cancer did not return and we had 10 more years together before he died at 85. I believe my husband was one of the oldest patients at that time to undergo that surgery. Now, that would not seem unusual. Thanks to Dr. Swisher and to MD Anderson for their expertise, research and caring. May you find a cure for the scourge known as cancer. M. Zirschky
