Patient Experience
My 8-year-old son had a really bad stomach bug that just wouldn't let up. We were so worried. Dr. Swatee was just... calm. She explained everything to him in a way he could understand, not just to us. She even waited while he picked a band-aid color after his blood test. The clinic was busy and we waited a bit, but she never made us feel rushed. My kid left feeling brave, not scared, and that's everything.
Had my gallbladder out last month. The surgery itself is one thing, but the after part is rough. Dr. Halbe checked on me every single day in the hospital. She was really clear about what pain to expect and what was a red flag. Her instructions for home were simple—no confusing medical jargon. I'm three weeks out now and following her recovery plan, and I actually feel like I'm getting better each day.
Went to Dr. Swatee Halbe for a persistent cough. She listened, asked good questions, figured it out. Got the right meds, cough is gone. Straightforward and helpful. Would see her again.
I'd been feeling run-down for months. Just tired, you know? My regular check-up turned into a real investigation with Dr. Halbe. She didn't just shrug and say 'it's stress.' She went through my history, ordered specific tests, and actually called me herself with the results instead of having a nurse do it. Turns out it was a vitamin deficiency that was easy to fix. The whole process made me feel like she was genuinely curious about solving the puzzle, not just moving patients through. The hospital parking is a nightmare, but honestly, it was worth the hassle for that kind of care.
