Not sure what to say?

Hi Gloria:

I think about Marty alot and he was my first employer as you remember. He was generous to a tee and alway had that loving glint in his eye. A real gentle giant and an inspiration to me. He was soft spoken and patient and always took the high ground of treating even his adversaries kindly.

I think about him much. He was from an era where doctors were colleagues and friends. This is something that he and I discussed very recently- something that is gone now and...

I was so sad to learn today that a wonderful person and talented physician and surgeon passed on. Yes, he put me back together after a motor vehicle accident when my car was hit from behind. I am 47 years old and have known his family for 43 year (yes, I was 4 years old). Dr. Swiecicki was not only my physician, but a dear friend who I lost touch with after his retirement. My family and I extend our deepest sympathies to Gloria and the rest of his family. I hope that they find comfort by...

I recieved s note from a dear friend and physician that really touched me so I wanted to share this with everyone. It kind of sums up Marty's professional life.
" To experience the man and the medicine of the man was truly special for me. Medicine should always be, forever special like this doctor made it. His way shall always be inside me guiding me to do what is right."
Gloria

Dear Mrs. Swiecicki and Family,
Dr. Swiecicki has truly changed our life by the surgery he performed on George. His knowledge and skills were unbelievable. His bedside manner was unforgettable, he always had a smile on the ready and a great sense of humor.
Dr. S. was a wonderful and kind man whom we truly will miss.
May your family pull together during this time of pain, and comfort each other with happy memories and the knowledge that you were blessed to have him in your...

Dear Gloria,today is exactly one month since Martin passed away.The news have fallen on us as an avalanche of stones.He looked to us immortal as all great people do.He was one of the first who developed" the suction of the nucleus pulposus procedure" in patients with spinal disc herniation /or whatever is the official name of this operation /.He performed this surgery on my wife Anna,who was almost paralysed, with spectacular results. We always remember You,your visit to our house was one of...

It is impossible to share my memories of Dr Martin Swiecicki in a few words but I will try. I worked for him for over 20 years as his office manager. During this time I got to know him and his family and got to share in many events with them. He was so generous and helpful to me and my family. Several of my children worked for him. When my husband Jim had a terrible medical situation occur, he was the one I called for emergency advice and assistance. He put his own reputation on the line...

God uses people to do his miraculous works. Dr. Swiecicki was definately used by God (over and over again!) to do miracles on my mother. Most people will pray to God to give their Doctor wisdom before surgery, however, few people have the joy of praying with their Doctor on the night before surgery. Dr. Swiecicki was such a blessing and comfort to our family for so many years. He will be missed by the countless lives that he saved. His time on earth was not wasted or selfishly used; instead,...

My Mom had been a patient of many of doctors, but I have never heard her talk so fondly of a physician as she did of Dr. Swiecicki. I was very young when he operated on my mother and saved her life, but I will always remember her saying what a wonderful man he was and how he was such a blessing to our family. I remember her saying what a beautiful bedside manner he had which would put her and my dad at ease as they entrusted her life into his (and God's) hands. That is part of the reason...

Dear Mrs. Swiecicki, I send my sympathy and prayers for you and your family. I never knew Dr. Swiecicki, but I was a patient of his brother, Alan, and my sister was a patient of your husband's. She has never had anything but praise for him, both personally and professionally. His medical skill surely saved her life, and saved our family much grief, and we will forever be grateful. His compassion and friendship helped her to survive an extremely difficult time in her life. Now I hope...
