A sought-after voice in the field, he's delivered lectures at various dental forums, including the prominent Ontario Dental Association conference. Always looking to give back, Dr. Swayze has offered his expertise to underserved communities in the North, as well as in nations like Guatemala and Belize, and to homeless youth.

Currently, Dr. Swayze adeptly juggles roles at the Royal College of Dental Surgeons of Ontario as the Assistant to the Registrar and serves the Danforth Neighbourhood Dental Centre. Residing in the Danforth area, he, his wife, and their two children take immense pride in being active community members.
