About Me
Dr. Matthew Swan is a board-certified neurologist at Mount Sinai Downtown Union Square, specializing in the diagnosis and management of movement disorders. He completed his neurology residency training at Albert Einstein College of Medicine/Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx, NY, and his movement disorders fellowship training at Mount Sinai Beth Israel. He has experience in the use of botulinum toxins to treat movement disorders and spasticity, and in the management of deep brain stimulation for movement disorders. He is actively involved in the training of movement disorders fellows, and is a core faculty member in the neurology residency at Mount Sinai Beth Israel.
Dr. Swan offers telemedicine appointments when appropriate. Please call his office to schedule a video visit.
The state of Florida requires out-of-state professionals who are registered to provide telehealth services to display a hyperlink to the Florida Department of Health telehealth web page. This allows Florida patients who are receiving medical care by telehealth to confirm the provider’s licensure and Florida registration.

Patient Experience Star Ratings and Comments
The Patient Experience Star Rating reflects our patients’ perception of how well their Mount Sinai provider communicated with them during an office visit. The Star Rating is based on patient responses to three questions on a patient experience survey, a standardized questionnaire sent to verified patients and distributed by a third party vendor, Press Ganey. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best score.

Industry Relationships
Physicians and scientists on the faculty of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai often interact with pharmaceutical, device, biotechnology companies, and other outside entities to improve patient care, develop new therapies and achieve scientific breakthroughs. In order to promote an ethical and transparent environment for conducting research, providing clinical care and teaching, Mount Sinai requires that salaried faculty inform the School of their outside financial relationships.
Dr. Swan did not report having any of the following types of financial relationships with industry and other outside entities during 2024 and/or 2025: consulting, scientific advisory board, industry-sponsored lectures, service on Board of Directors, participation on industry-sponsored committees, equity ownership valued at greater than 5% of a publicly traded company or any value in a privately held company. Please note that this information may differ from information posted on corporate sites due to timing or classification differences.
Mount Sinai’s faculty policies relating to faculty collaboration with industry are posted on our website. Patients may wish to ask their physician about the activities they perform for companies.
