I had a great experience at ROC. Everyone was friendly and efficient! Thank you, Dr. Swanson for taking care of my broken arm with kindness, care, and wisdom.

After months of ignoring the pain in my foot, I went to ROC Express and was seen by their incredible staff. They got me seen quickly, professionally and scheduled for follow-up testing and appointments. Dr. Swanson explained everything very clearly and with kindness. Our experiences with ROC have always been 5 star. Everyone there, from the parking lot attendants to the doctors are amazing. Everyone is very kind and helpful.

I broke my foot and saw Dr. Swanson and his physician assistant, Rose Meade. I’ve never met or been cared by such present, attentive and kind Physicians. They and everyone I encountered are a class act. Each visit they took care of me and my foot in the best way possible. I feel grateful that roc serves my community.
