Patient Reviews
Mar 25, 2024
Dr. Schweitzer serves as my primary doctor (he's the only doctor I see). My whole family has been visiting him for several years. He is very knowledgeable and has a great bedside manner. He's very approachable and non-judgmental, and is very prompt in answering any questions or concerns that I (we) may have. He's excellent at diagnosing problems. This was aptly demonstrated when he prescribed the correct antibiotic for my son's football injury, which ended up being a MRSA infection. Without his correct treatment it could have been far more serious.
