Dr. Peters was kind and thorough with my questions. He was one of the few Opthamologist who knew about my particular issue and discussed possible future treatments with care and patience.

Not sure about the other complaints. Dr. Peters has been nothing but caring and competent. He is one of the most skilled cataract surgeons in the area, and I am so happy that I found him. It seems that negative comments are all that people ever post, and who knows the dynamic of the other responders. A+ all of the way

DO NOT go to this doctor. With so many other good choices in Tulsa, don't put your health in jeopardy by going to him. Hopelessly unskilled with a TERRIBLE staff.
