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.

Great experience
Dr. McDermott was wonderful. I was a little nervous and he explained everything he was doing. I'm very happy with this practice and everyone is very nice.

Pain relief
The team there are informative and personal. The doctor talked about the procedure before and during it. Was professional and gentle the whole visit. Would highly recommend him and the staff to anyone needing pain relief. Can't say enough about the experience with them at Swift Institute.
