Patient Reviews
Oct 12, 2020
Dr. Peterson is one of those rare physicians who is a genuinely *gifted* diagnostician, due in no small part to his desire to really LISTEN to everything that his patient is telling him. He’s one of the few physicians I’ve known who truly treats the patient on a ‘holistic’ level, and doesn’t use that word for its current marketing impact! He keeps current on all of the cutting-edge research & treatments while also leaning toward a more likely ‘easier on the patient’ treatment plan, @least to try first, before recommending the latest and newest (one more likely to not be fully covered by the health insurance plan!) which often saves wasted ‘emotional capital’, all especially important when the patient has already seen other docs before going to see him! He’s the ‘perfect’ balance of kindness, gentleness and real caring, always willing to admit if he’s not certain about something, and then he’ll go and do research to try to help! I’ve known a lot of physicians and he’s one of the BEST!

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
