Patient Reviews
Nov 16, 2019
When a nodule was seen on my lung I consulted with three different thoracic surgeons about what to do and chose Dr. Swanson. Best decision of my life, as he saved my life. He knew right away it was cancer and took it out. Others demurred. When he moved from Mount Sinai in New York back to HarvardI followed him. It has been 12 years since that surgery. I see him each year for follow ups and would follow him anywhere. He is incredibly skilled and a wonderful person. You can’t do better than that!
