Episode 3: A Crooked Mile
Swineheart is seen tending to Bigby's shotgun wound at the Business Office after Lily's funeral. He manages to get most of the buckshot out, but informs Bigby that there are some smaller pieces that will have to work their way out on their own. If Snow was shot, Swineheart explains that her wound was minor and just required a few stitches. He also took care of Holly and Grendel, and dropped them off at the Trip Trap with some painkillers. During the scene at the Trip Trap, it is revealed that Swineheart told Holly and Grendel not to mix the painkillers with alcohol (which Grendel foolishly disregards) and try to get some sleep.

He is mentioned again by the Crooked Man while aiming his revolver at Bigby in the Sheppard Metalworks. When Narissa hints that she is actually a glamored Faith, Bigby remembers being told that Swineheart had wanted to run some more tests on Lily's body. If the head placed at the door of the Woodlands had indeed been someone else glamored to look like Faith, then Swineheart had said nothing about the glamour wearing off, implying he had been part of the conspiracy.
Book of Fables entry
"Dr. Swineheart is the resident Fabletown physician. So skilled in the art of instrumental surgery that he can safely operate on himself, he served as an army medic for years, sometimes using his talents to impress the locals. He currently runs the "Special Research Section" of the Knights of Malta Hospital, so named to discourage people for investigating what is actually a reserved, Fables-focused health facility."
