I met with Dr. Swank, who was completely sympathetic regarding my surgery apprehensions. He suggested a conservative approach, with medication and exercise. if I do eventually decide on the knee replacement surgery, I know that he has an outstanding reputation as a technician and that his patients have unparalleled success in the recovery period. He also has a great sense of humor and can talk philosophy too!

After just 1 visit, I’ve decided to get a long-overdue knee replacement. Dr. Swank is informative and up to date on the latest technology. He put me right at ease and I feel confident going forward with my surgery.
