Dr. Swan isn’t backing down from pain. She began her mission as a podiatry doctor and surgeon a decade ago to let pain know it’s not welcome in our lives any more.
“When I find out a new patient has been accepting foot or leg discomfort for a long period of time, it makes me sad yet exhilarated at the same time because I know I can heal them or at a minimum, drastically impact their current health for the better. One of the greatest joys is watching my patients experience better quality of life and living pain free.”
Dr. Swan’s office, Right Step Foot Care, is located conveniently on Industrial Parkway in Marysville. She accepts new patients and strives to schedule same day or next day appointments for all patients. Her belief is that you shouldn’t have to wait for relief.
