OBGYN Updates for Clinicians - February 2026

Some Quick Updates to Share

- Congratulations to partners Dr Jenny Lichon and Dr. KASH on milestone work anniversaries.  

- Welcome to our newer board-certified OBGYN physicians, Dr Casey Johnson (2024) and Dr. Julianne Kenton-Haney (2025). Casey and his wife Sophia come from Virginia via St. Louis. Julianne and her husband Steve return to Sarasota after several years practicing in North Carolina.

- We are proud to be honored with several big awards over the last 4 years…Best OBGYN practice, Small Business of the Year finalist and top 5 Best Places to Work. In 2025 we were recognized as the medium business of the year by the Sarasota-Manatee Chamber of Commerce. The first medical practice so honored. 

- Dr Swor has chaired the Division of Advanced Gynecologic and Minimally-Invasive Surgery at Sarasota Memorial for 10+ years. As Sarasota Memorial celebrates its 100th year, Dr. Swor was recognized for his 40 years of service.

Since 2016, Drs. Swor, KASH and Lichon have led the first Low Impact Specialty Gyn Surgery Service in the Southeast United States. The latest robotic and micro-laparoscopic technology is available to local and travel medicine patients and includes treatment of pelvic reconstruction, endometriosis, infertility, fibroids, pelvic pain and prolapse. This program has provided exceptional care to over 1000 women in need since 2016 with superior outcomes data, including near zero infection and major complication rates. We have provided the highly successful Gyn ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) program since 2018. We pioneered the latest medical and surgical advances in the treatment of endometriosis and fibroids, including new GnRH active drug therapies, research trials and Acessa and Sonata ultrasound guided radiofrequency ablation.

We have the most experience and the best credentials for advanced gyn and urogyn surgery in the area. High volume surgeons have the best outcomes. We presented our retrospective outcomes data on over 2500 cases at the international meeting of the Society of Laparoscopic and Robotic Surgeons. Despite treating many complex gyn surgical patients with various major pathologies, we have lowest rate of laparotomy conversion (2 cases in 20 years) and the lowest published complication rates.  

Dr. Swor is an international lecturer and trainer in advanced techniques. We are designated the Southeastern US regional center for excellence in Low Impact Gyn Microlaparoscopy.

Specialty Office Services & Treatments Available at Our Practice

We provide Board-Certified Urogynecology services including full testing and therapeutic options. 

Office Minor Gyn Surgery Program

with new technologies, skilled sedation and anesthesia care including nitrous oxide analgesia, we can provide expert surgery options without the extra risks and high costs of hospital care. Office hysteroscopy, D&C, endometrial ablation and LEEP are first choice surgical options for abnormal or heavy bleeding, suspected neoplasia and abnormal pap.

OB and Maternity Care

Dr Lichon oversees our obstetrical service with Dr Johnson and Dr Kenton-Haney. They provide supervision and supportive care to our obstetrical patients with delivery and hospital care at Sarasota Memorial’s state-of-the-art Courtyard Tower facility. 

Hormone and Menopause-Counseling and Treatment

 We offer counseling and treatment for all aspects of women’s health hormone dysfunction, including menopause, perimenopause, PMS, sexual dysfunction, and infertility. Our physicians and staff are experienced in advising patients on all available options for hormone dysfunction, including nutritional supplements, natural and non-hormone therapy as well as the full spectrum of hormone treatments. We are certified providers of new advanced hormone pellet therapy for appropriate patients, through our hormone partner Evexias Health. Again, we will provide counseling and guidance without requiring transfer of care from another physician.

Specialty OBGyn Ultrasound

 In our office, when indicated, we offer vaginal probe pelvic ultrasound testing, performed by the gynecologist. We were accredited by the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine 20 years ago and peer-reviewed by fellow clinical staff at USF. This specialized testing offers an immediate real-time clinical correlation with exam findings that exceeds the quality of most pelvic ultrasound studies. 

Pap Smears, Breast, Pelvic and Gyn Exam Recommendations

 We believe all women deserve an annual women’s health-oriented exam/visit. A yearly screening and preventive care visit provides access to urgent care, telephone advice, important health history review and medical exam and cancer screenings. We are committed to helping women with preventive health maintenance and early cancer detection, as well as risk reduction support. We coordinate our care to be complementary to primary care and other specialist’s services.

We hope this update has been informative. We are all on the same team with the goal of helping our patients and each other (and surviving the times). We are always available for quickie phone, text or email consults from other clinicians on any OB or Gyn specialty care patient issues. We will see any clinician-referred patients on an urgent basis, if you believe it is important. Thank you for all your support over the years. We appreciate your confidence in our care and your commitment to quality.
