A great expert and diagnostician who responded to concerns helpfully, identified issues and carried out procedure very skillfully. Dr Sweis explained my situation so clearly that it helped understand it. While I realize that should be usual, she took time to help me and my family grasp it. I am so grateful to her for her care.

Dr. Sweis is a top expert and we can see why. She is knowledgeable and skilled which you would expect... but what makes her stand out is her warm, compassionate approach. We see that she is well regarded and respected by her fellows, staff, and peers which creates a holistic, comprehensive care experience. Finally and most importantly, the TAVR outcome was successful - exceeding all our expectations. Definitely leaving the hospital feeling much better than when we arrived.

Dr. Swiss, is an amazing doctor. She explained the procedure in detail in a manner that a non-medical person can understand. She also recognized my family awaiting in the hall and personally escorted then to be with me... my family are still talking about how nice, engaging and approachable she is! Kinda like a regular person...not a highly-trained surgeon!

Dr. Sweis is the most amazing doctor. She is thorough, personable and very reassuring. She explains in real terms what you have and the best way to manage/treat your issue. She is not an alarmist and does not order unnecessary tests and screenings. I am so happy she was recommended to me by my former cardiologist. I couldn't be happier!!
