I waited over 40 minutes in the room for the doctor to come with just a paper sheet covering me. I was cold and nervous as I had a concern and that’s why I was there. Finally I went to the door with the paper sheet covering me anShow mored stuck my head out to find out if perhaps they forgot I was in the room. I had a nurse tell that the Dr had an emergency surgery and just got back and would see me soon. I completely understand that things happen that may delay the doctor and I respect that. It would have been nice if someone would have communicated with me and let me know what the delay was and acknowledge me versus leaving me sit there without knowing what was going on. My doctor was wonderful, thoughtful and caring.
Everyone was pleasant and professional. My physician, Dr Swigert, was personalble and actively listened to my concerns and experience. She acknowledged and validated what I was experiencing. I felt confident in her knowledge of HRShow moreT for me and what my body needs. However, I felt a bit rushed with the intake paperwork. I never finished it and there was GYN and family history I didn't complete which feels important. I do plan to follow up with Dr Swigert in 6 weeks. Thank you for a pleasant experience!

Annelise Swigert, MD, is a board-certified OBGYN at Southdale ObGyn.The practice has two locations with offices in Edina and Burnsville, Minnesota.
She received a Bachelor of Arts in French Literature at Wellesley College in Boston, Massachusetts, and a Doctor of Medicine at Northwestern University in Chicago, Illinois. She served as Chief Resident at the University of Minnesota and Hennepin County Medical Center.
Memberships, leadership, and awards include:
“I’ve wanted to be a doctor for as long as I can remember,” says Dr. Swigert. “But it wasn’t until I arrived at medical school that I realized my passion for Obstetrics.”
“At Northwestern University, I worked closely with a maternal-fetal medicine specialist as she researched HIV transmission in pregnancy during the early 1990s. It helped me realize that we are always caring for and making decisions about two patients – mom and baby and that we can change lives”.
She is especially interested in medically complicated pregnancies. She says, “ Obstetrics is about making pregnancy a safe and healthy time of your life.”
Contraceptive and hormonal management from the teen years through peri-menopause is also of great interest. Counseling women of all ages about safe options for pregnancy prevention and treatment of hormonally-based symptoms is an integral part of her practice.
Fluent in French, Dr. Swigert enjoys using this skill in the office and abroad. She was recently able to use it on a medical mission trip to Haiti, where she cared for young women and performed surgical procedures.
When not in the office or hospital, Dr. Swigert loves to travel, try innovative food and wine, and spend time with her two teenage children.

I've had Dr. Swigert for years, and I am so grateful to have such a caring doctor. She listens really well to any questions or concerns you may have, explains anything you don't quit understand, and overall, cares about your well-being.
Dr. Swigert always listens and asks questions. She gives good medical advice. I trust her.
Always a professional. I’ve been seeing Dr. Swigert for 3 years now. You can discuss anything with her, she treats you with respect and no judgement. I will continue to see Dr. Swigert until she retires which is hopefully not for a long time!
I felt heard and well cared for and the doctor was very knowledgeable and helpful.
Dr. Swigert is the absolute best doctor I have ever had. She listens to all concerns and works until we figure out what might be the issue.
I had a great experience with Dr. Swigert. She is very professional and made me feel comfortable and talked me through what she was doing the entire time.
My doctor made me feel like a person and not just another number. She really cared about me. I am happy because I will finally get the medical treatment I need.
Dr Swigert is one of the best OBGYN’s I’ve had. She’s thorough and asks questions.
I always appreciate the care I receive! Thanks for everything.
Dr. Swigert really helped me navigate solutions to my health issues. I heard her speak at a woman’s conference last year and knew I had to make my next annual exam appointment with her. She really listens and answered all my questions. She set my mind at ease and also offered some online resources I can use.
After moving out of Minnesota, I fly in from another state to see Dr. Swiggert, because I trust her so much. She is actively working to provide the best care possible. -A.M.

Dr. Swigert always concerned with my overall health and well being. Even though she's busy, she always sits down and takes time to snseer

Dr. Swigert was wonderful! She asked lots of questions, took the time to listen and offer sound advice with options. I would definitely recommend her to other women looking for a great OB/GYN doc. The front desk staff, imaging staff, and nurses working the day of my appointment were so friendly and made us all feel welcome. Thanks for a great experience!
I didn’t feel like she was rushed during our appointment and made sure to answer any questions I had.
