I had surgery on my right wrist with Dr. Peterson. I can't say enough good things about him. A very kind and caring young man, as well as being an excellent surgeon. After only four months, one has to look hard to even find the scar from the surgery. He was very patient answering all my questions (sometimes more than once!). He was honest about possible complications, as well as letting me know it might not take care of all the pain. But it all went very well and I'm so glad I did it! I'm already planning on having the same surgery on my left wrist (for severe arthritis pain), and I'm not dreading it at all!

I saw him for a preop appointment prior to surgery after seeing his PA. He will be doing surgery on me next week. He is very easy-going and is very likable.
