Swanick Family Practice was established in 2007 by Dr. Keith Swanick and his wife Aislinn.
Having originated in Roscommon, Keith and Aislinn were both familiar with Erris, particularly Keith whose Mum was a native of Ballycroy.
Keith spent many summers there throughout his childhood and even spent a term attending Ballycroy NS.
The Practice was initially located at Belmullet Health Centre, but it became apparent that a custom-built building was necessary to accommodate the advances and progression of Swanick Family Practice.
The purpose-built premises is situated at Church road Belmullet since 2010 and provides a wide range of general medical services as well as specialised services.
