5.0 star star star star starI found her to be capable and also very warm and personable. She listened to my concerns about statins and we agreed on an alternative. She realized that I'm 85, in good health and don't want any extreme measures.

5.0 star star star star starDr.Sweis was highly recommended by several doctors for her knowledge, expertise and experience about heart surgery. I met her and the other doctor days before surgery. She is kind and relaxed. She makes her work appear easier than it is. If necessary, I would have her again.
