"Very nice physician! I had a skiing injury and it was scary being so far from home (I live in Florida). Dr. Swanson made me feel comfortable and he reassured me that I would recover just fine."

"I'm always happy with my care at ROC. This was no exception. I especially like the time Dr. Swanson took to me my x-rays and explain what was going on."
