From a young age, Alison Swelbar, PA-C, found her
passion for science and helping people. During high
school, her father was diagnosed with colon cancer,
sparking her interest in gastroenterology. She gained
two years of experience working with patients in the
hospital before moving to her current practice.
As a certified physician assistant, Alison sees adults
for acute and chronic illnesses of the gastrointestinal
tract, including reflux, celiac disease, colitis and
irritable bowel syndrome. She builds rapport with her
patients, creating a trusting relationship that opens
doors to communication. She likes to spend time
with her patients, listening to their concerns and
answering all questions. She encourages everyone
to advocate for themselves and to ask questions to
better understand their health conditions.
A native Cincinnatian, Alison is married. She is a runner
and loves to cook, read and knit.
