Office Closure

We want to thank all our valued patients for their trust and support over the years. Dr. Eastman is stepping away for a season and though Swiftwater Dermatology saw its last patient in May 2025, we are deeply grateful for the confidence you have placed in us throughout the years. It has truly been an honor to be a part of your health journey.

Though Swiftwater Dermatology is closing, please know that each of you has left a lasting impact on us. It has been a privilege to serve our community, and we wish you all continued health and happiness.

Sincerely Yours,

Kristin Eastman, MD
Swiftwater Dermatology

Medical Records

We have retained Cariend, a medical record custodian, to manage the records for the next 7 years, effective July 14, 2025. Cariend is not a medical provider and does not handle billing, medications, or referrals for the closed practice.

Requestors should be prepared to complete the Records Release Authorization Form and provide a copy of government-issued photo ID, as required by HIPAA. The fastest way to process requests for copies of medical records is to visit Cariend’s website and follow the instructions.

By Phone

If you do not have access to a computer or internet, Cariend can be reached by phone at 404- 991-7080. Please note the HIPAA laws do not allow medical records to be released based on a phone or email request.

By Mail

If you prefer to mail your completed Authorization Form and Government-issued Photo ID:

Cariend ROI
PO Box 1866
Thomasville, GA 31799-1866

By Email

If you have questions about the process, Cariend can also be contacted via email at Request@Cariend.com however, you should not send sensitive personal information or request documents through email.

Medical Billing

Our billing company, New Directions, will continue to follow all claims to completion.
They are available for payment collection as well as questions at 425-899-3999.
