You cannot improve on being perfect. My experience was perfect. My nurse or doctor did a wonderful job of giving me the cortisone shot and very knowledgeable of my experiences and my history. Thank you. Have a good evening. Bye now.

Dr. Peterson was one of the best physicians I have seen. She and her assistant were knowledgeable about my chart and very interested in what my needs and wants were for this visit. She was very prompt and considerate of my time. Her assistant made sure we were ready for her and all bases covered. I would definitely refer her to any of my relatives or friends.

I love coming to this appointment. They always make me feel better when I leave. But more than that, they ask me how I'm doing, talk about my overall health. It is my favorite appointment to come to!

PA Caroline Peterson is one of the few providers I have personally interacted with that stops, listens, provides options, and makes you feel valued as a patient. She creates a sense of trust and confidence that gives me a sense of peace in knowing that my medical issues will be dealt with in the highest level of knowledge and concern for my well being.

The check-in staff seriously need customer service training. The nurse/MA needs guidance on wearing a mask given the cough she had.

I have seen Caroline Peterson for years, with my knee problems. She is excellent and I trust her. Caroline provides all the information you need and provides future ideas of what to expect. Great person!
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 8/20/2023
Ms. Peterson really explained the cause of my knee pain using the X-rays that were done before we met. She also told me some important facts that really helped me to know what I should do in the future if either of my knees become painful again. I value and respect her knowledge and the care she gave me.

Very good experience with Dr. Peterson as she explained the ex-ray regarding my shoulder pain so I understood the situation. It's too bad that old people end up with pain to control. She did explain my options so it was my choice.

A mix up with the scheduling for xrays. Scheduling staff for internal medicine didn't advise me that orthopedics scheduled their own xrays so I arrived an hour early.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 6/8/2023
I was glad that she started the treatment, instead of just forming a plan to start the treatment!!

It was really nice to have a caring provider.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 5/29/2023
Excellent all around. With multiple locations was able to get in right away which is what I needed. I was in severe pain (knee) and it was addressed the same day. Couldn't be happier other than I should have sought treatment much sooner.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 5/24/2023
Very satisfied with my appointment
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 5/23/2023
Caroline suggested an injection and that should give me relief. I do have an appt in orthopedics also to discuss a surgical option. I was given a name by Caroline and I appreciated that.

Caroline was quick, and made sure the injections were painless. She gave me after care instructions and his to follow up with her and when. She is very straight to the point but also holds a good conversation, which is very important to me in choosing a provider.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 4/30/2023
Caroline and the nursing staff are AMAZING. I was basically ignored by the checkin staff. It was ridiculous, as I was the only person checking in and NO ONE else was being helped.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 4/26/2023
PA C Peterson is Amazing. She was very straightforward with everything and listened to everything I said and asked.. she made me feel completely comfortable with the process of dealing with my shoulder.. I like that fact that she is straight to the facts and explains everything so I can understand it and learn more.

My appointment was at 5, no one told me I wouldn't be able to check out and not make my next appointment. I waited for 10 minutes before a nurse from another department said no one there and I was supposed to call next day. Maybe a sign?
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 4/11/2023
Excellent staff, they always make you feel comfortable, no stress or anxiety.
