Great physician. I have had problems with my diabetes and he was the first to listen and teach me how to use my medicines to control my glucose levels! Why do you withdraw positive ratings on this person?

MY GRANDMOTHER AND GRANDFATHER DIED BECAUSE OF THIS MAN. MY GRANDFATHER HAD LUNG CANCER AND BECAUSE OF HIS MISDIAGNOSES BY THE TIME WE SWITCHED DOCTORS IT WAS TO LATE. THEN MY GRANDMOTHER WAS UP AT MERCY IN THE INTENSIVE CARE UNIT I WANTED TO TALK TO DR. PETERSON ABOUT SOME OF THE OPTIONS WE HAD BECAUSE SHE WAS LOSING SO MUCH BLOOD TIME WAWS OF THE ESSENCE HE WOULD NOT RETURN MY CALLS THIS DOCTOR NEEDS TO LOOSE HIS MEDICAL LISCENSE. HE IS THE BIGGEST JOKE FOR A DOCTOR I HAVE EVER SEEN. HE IS IN IT FOR THE MONEY IF YOU GO TO HIS OFFICE HE OVER BOOKS PATIENTS IT IS JAM PACKED THEREFORE YOU DONT GET THE ATTENTION YOU NEED. MY GRANDMOTHER SEEN IN HIS OFFICE AND HE DID A SPINAL RIGHT THERE IN THE OFFICE I WALKED IN DURING THERE WAS BLOOD EVERYWHERE THAT SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN PERFORMED IN A DOCTORS OFFICE IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN DONE IN A HOSPITAL SHE WAS IN PAIN FOR WEEKS AFTER THAT. I FULLY BLAME HIM FOR BOTH MY GRANDMOTHER AND GRANDFATHERS DEATH......

Dr.Peterson was treating me for gestational diabetes, and of the four months he "treated" me, I saw him TWICE. He talks down to people and is rude. He accused me of lying about how I was eating and taking my insulin, and insisted that I stay in the office an extra three hours to take my insulin, choose and eat a meal, and show him after two hours that my blood sugar responded as I'd been saying it did; even though my husband was there to confirm my story, as was my mother. At that point I walked out. I'd rather go somewhere else. The dietitians are amazing and wonderful, but the doctors are awful. He even called my OB's office to tell them my social worker should know how unstable and irresponsible I am. I don't even have a social worker! He is biased against people with little income, and if you're young, forget it. Don't EVER go here!!!
