Everything was great.
- 3 out of 5 starsReviewed on 1/13/2026
I’ve only seen him twice but both times I felt like he didn’t seem very confident. He’s been fine to put in the referrals I have asked for, but it makes me feel less confident in him as my provider.

Dr. Peterson is always a phenomenal doctor. He has a very easy-going bedside manner, and he always listens to every discussion of symptoms before providing care and offering suggestions. His suggestions always blend well with what, I as the patient, am willing to do.

Dr Peterson listed and explained everything in a very clear and straightforward manner. Dr Peterson was very respectful and resolved my issues.
- 1 out of 5 starsReviewed on 10/3/2025
he was insensitive, condescending. I’m pretty much rude to my liking. He should learn to treat people with respect, no matter their age and to listen to what the patient is saying about their bodies because they know their bodies better than the doctor.
