Dr. Swayman started at Eastown Veterinary Clinic in February 2020 and became our Medical Director in January 2023. She loves connecting with clients and helping ensure a long, happy life with their beloved pets. Meeting a new puppy or kitten with their new family and following that pet and their family as they grow and bond together through the years is priceless!
At home, she has one dog, Rue, a 9-year-old Rat Terrier that she and her family adopted in 2016. Rue is sweet and snuggly and likes to bark at anything that moves - in true terrier fashion! She loves spending time with her two kids, Ella and Ryan, and her husband, Keith. They play many games together, travel for soccer and flag football games, and enjoy time at their family cottage in Northern Michigan. She is an avid reader, loves to run and hike, and is working on improving her French!
Veterinary medicine has always been a part of Dr. Swayman's life. Both her grandfather and father were veterinarians. She fondly remembers "helping" at her dad's clinic and riding in his truck to numerous farm calls as a child.
After studying engineering at Purdue University as an undergrad, she attended Michigan State University College of Veterinary Medicine - following in her father's footsteps - and graduated in 2008 with her Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine. She has since found a love for practicing small animal medicine.
