I loved Dr. Swali! I had just done my annual skincare checkup which I have never done before. She was super thorough, removed a pink fibrous papule from my nose, and helped out with my daily skincare regime! I actually could not recommend her enough. I even loved the nurse! And the office is super boujee.

February 25, 2026Sebastian G.Verified patient
I’m familiar with the location & after reading reviews and seeing Dr.Swali’s profile picture she represented professionalism, but also I saw a caring person, so I booked an appointment . When I entered the office it beautifully furnished, and filled with a refreshment area I was instantly greeted by the warmth of the front desk Staff who calmed my nerves, She along with the other Staff member were so pleasant I’m sorry I can’t remember her name, the Doctor’s assistant definitely helped My nerves, She was so understanding and kind, & patient. Now Dr. Swali was kind, understanding and she showed compassion & most of all she listened, and asked Me, what I wanted to do, and now I have a diagnosis and a treatment. I highly recommend her And will definitely be returning. .

I was apprehensive when I walked into the office and saw the line of skin products for sale. I was worried I'd get a hard sell about what to use. But that didn't happen, and I am thankful for that. Everything was easy going, and I was seen pretty quickly.

Awesome experience from check in to check out. The clinic itself was easy to find, very beautiful and clean. I went in to check on a weird looking mole I have, the doctor checked me all throughout my body for anything else that might look suspicious ; which I truly appreciate! They took a sample of my mole after numbing it, with minimal pain. The staff was so nice and helpful and even gave me tons of sunscreen samples and some anti dandruff shampoo samples as well. Highly recommend :)
