She believes that examining a patient, treating the pet and educating the owner cannot feasibly be done in 15 minutes.

She gives information to owners that pertains to a condition their pet has, so owners know what normal for their pet, abnormal signs to watch out for, how to proceed with treatment, and about the pet's prognosis. She clarifies why she recommends procedures such as spays, neuters, dental cleanings and use of preventatives because it all pertains to the overall health of the pet.

Even in the veterinarian field, there are specialist available for extenuating circumstances, and Dr. Swaim believes in putting pets in the best hands possible when situations arise. During the beginning of the Corona Pandemic, Dr. Swaim opened the first mobile veterinary clinic that has tremendously assisted pet owners, as well as their pets they have so much love for. Owners who needed their pets treated but did not feel safe going out amongst other individuals were kept safe. To those that did not feel comfortable being separated from their pet, as they provided comfort to them as they were anxious, were able to still be with them and not having to wait out it their cars, as owners were not allowed in clinics. Owners were able to speak to Dr. Swaim face to face instead of over a phone to have any questions they had answered, and to have complete clarification with. It also brought along other perks to owners by allowing them to have more time with the convivence Dr. Swaim coming to them and not have the hassle of fighting to get their dog in their car. Likewise, becoming a mobile veterinarian was more beneficial to the pets. Treating dogs and cats in their everyday environment created an enormous impact on a pet's emotional experience. Dr. Swaim aimed at creating the best pet-friendly environment, and her going to the pet's home took the pet-friendly experience to a completely different level. Cats do not have to be placed in carriers and packed into a clinic or sit in a waiting room next to a barking dog. It is beneficial to dogs who struggle to getting in and out of vehicles due to conditions such as arthritis. Likewise, dogs that get sick on the ride to the clinic or gets nervous in the car is no longer problematic. Furthermore, the anxiousness of a dog is decreased as they do not have to encounter all the different smells where other pets had been prior, nor sit in distress under their owner's legs as they hear the barks of the dogs in the back. Opening her own mobile clinic has allowed Dr. Swaim to practice how she believes in, while also helping owners and their pets have a completely different experience than having to go into a clinic to receive treatment.
