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.

Dr. Swinnen is a gem! He's patient, thorough, and has a gift for clearly explaining conditions and treatment options. I have a rare form of non-Hodgkins lymphoma and have been under his care and cancer-free for three years. I recommend him highly.

Dr. Swinnen explained my condition to me in a way that was easily understood and very thorough and also went over any and all possibilities that exist with my type of malignancy and organ transplant. I walked out very satisfied and felt like for the first time I was explained exactly what I have and how it a treatment should be approached.

Dr. Swinnen is fabulous. I have been at Hopkins for Liver transplant, colectomy and recently Lymphoma. He saved my life. Has to be one of the top Lymphoma Doctors in the world.
