Dr. Peden did my surgery and was great. He and his office set up all my pre-op appointments and my post-op in home care. Life is good with the right Doctor.ð?¤?

Looked at my injured finger for about 3 minutes, had his assistant give me an injection in my finger joint which further injured my finger joint and is still in pain after 2 years from the injection.

Dr. Peden is excellent and very approachable! He is a wonderful Dr and talks to you like a person in language you can understand! His office staff at the front desk could use some additional people skills!

Dr. Paden is the best surgeon if you have a rotator tear cuff injury or bicep/tendon injury. His staff is also the best. They are continually calling to check on the patient and Dr. Peden will actually monitor the physical therapy himself. Such practices are unheard of these days. We need more doctors like Dr Peden!

Your basic hit and run 2012 doctors' visit. No followup at all. I hope the MRI report writer took more time to read the MRI than the doctor did with me.Obvious dedication to the money making machine put before the patients needs.
