I agree. My travel experiences with SOUTHWEST had been very positive. A couple of issues here and there but always a helpful crew when problems arose.

You have two options. You can gate check your personal chair to your connecting location OR you can gate check out to your final destination and request assistance at your connecting location. Since it takes substantial time to bring your personal chair up, I'd recommend the latter if your layover is less than any hour. (Note if you gate check to your connecting location you'll have to gate check it again at the connecting airport to your destination. )

If needed the personal chair can usually be brought onto the plane. Usually it is brought to the door of the aircraft. An aisle chair can be used if needed while on the aircraft.

(You'll be asked certain questions to better understand your needs.) Looking at your boarding pass you should see DWC on the right side of the boarding pass (if printed at the airport). Many times you're last to deplane if you require assistance because wheel chair pushers are not always at the gate when the plane arrives. These individuals are not airline employees so they just go where they are assigned.
