C. Nicole Swiner, M.D.

MiMi K essentially ushered me onto TV news. She has always been gracious and collaborative with me over the years with medical stories and how to tell them well on the air.


She always provides great feedback, both on the spot and after the cameras turned off, including what color lipstick to wear! I can always count on her gentle, yet honest, opinion and am grateful to her for helping me be comfortable with doing media. Her experience and multiple Emmy wins will serve her well in whatever she chooses to

do.
