    My doctor is an excellent doctor. He treats me very well because he's a cardiac surgeon. He treats me because of my leg problem; my right leg doesn't get enough oxygen. And I'm very happy with him. Thank you.

    Dr. Swerdlow seems wry knowledgeable and easy to talk with. He went over all the test results with me, and explained his recommendations, and said he would be reviewing my case with Dr. [redacted] and other cardiovascular colleagues at their next bi-monthly aortic case review meeting. I tend to ask a lot of questions, and Dr. Swerdlow was very attentive in answering them fully. He even stopped back at the doorway of my exam room when he saw that my friend and I were still sitting there after he'd left the room. We were taking a minute to discuss things, and he stopped to make sure we were all set and to see if we had any further questions. I've been dealing with chronic genetic cardiac issues since I was a child. So, I very much appreciated this doctor's attentiveness to details, his ease in communicating with me, and his concern in making sure we had all our questions answered before we left.
