Having been a patient of Mitch's for many decades helps us both communicate easily and work on my health issue.

I refer to it as the "Well Baby Exam" of ten minutes. He had all my records because I filled them ALL out on line before the appointment.

We had a good discussion of my diseases and treatment. He really listens to me and includes me in any treatment decisions.

Dr Peterson is a great doctor and I've recommended him to people in the past but in my most recent visit he made some comments about Muslims which I found extremely offensive. He said that Muslims made his wife uncomfortable during a recent trip to India and when discussing the relations between Muslims and Hindus in the country he said "not to be bad but Muslims don't get along with anyone" I'm a half arab woman who looks white so he probably did not know I would find this offensive. I don't know how else to report this but I wanted to make sure I reported it somewhere. I have been very upset by these comments in the days after my visit.

Dr. Peterson always takes the time to diagnose, explain diagnosis and discuss treatment options. He actually drew a diagram of the diagnosis so I could better understand the anatomy of the issue.

Ok, it was just too rushed, and he didn't seem to take the time that was needed with this appointment, for a new injury that has been steadily getting worse for the last month +

Dr. Peterson knows my history very well. This was an annual physical and we went over blood test results and he performed a physical exam. He explained several options for managing diabetes if the need should arise. All in all, excellent care.

Dr. Peterson was excellent as a clinician, he listened and spent enough time with me. The problem I have is with Optum care not being able to provide correct information everything from who is available and seeing new patients too they would validate parking for an appointment and then being told, no they don't. It's not the money it's being told one thing that's not true, the people on the phone need better training. I ran call centers. I know what they can do and what they can't.
