Patient Reviews
May 02, 2024
I am privileged to be able to see Dr Swisher approximately every three months in the Johnson City office, which is about 8 miles from my house, rather than having to drive to Knoxville. I would highly recommend him and his staff to anyone with pulmonary problems. I never feel rushed, and he is very easy to talk to, and very knowledgeable.
