In patients' words

"Dr Ryan foley is a great doctor, he take time to listen to your issues and he give you a honest feed back! Had total knee replacement for both knees! I am very happy with the outcome!"

Healthgrades (Dr. Ryan Foley)

"He was informative in the exam room, but that was before I had a diagnosis. He sent me for a hip injection, which lasted only a few days before the pain was back. He never contacted me with my diagnosis or what to do next."

Healthgrades (Dr. Jacob Ziegler)

"Kyle Swanson is the most unprofessional, condescending, arrogant, and incompetent doctor I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. He doesn’t know how to listen and will grab you without consent."

Vitals (Dr. Kyle Swanson)

"Dr. Swanson is the most competent and caring doctor with outstanding communication skills. He is honest with me regarding the diagnosis, condition analysis, and treatment option discussion."
