Dr Peterson is an all around great doctor and person. He genuinely cares about his patients well being as well as the nature of his office and happiness of those around him. I recommend him to everyone. He has helped some very hard working Ironworkers with their back problems.

Dr Peterson is always attentive and fantastic
July 11, 2018Jeffrey T.Verified patient
I had developed a disk bulge due to my job, sitting in front of computer for long hours and found Dr Peterson online.
Dr Peterson is friendly, knowledgable and through with his treatment. He takes time to explain the small details as well as the overall big picture. Along with relieving me from my initial pain, I'm adopting the techniques/practices he recommended to my daily routine to maintain good back health and prevent it from happening again.
I have been visiting Peterson Chiropractic regularly for over two months now. During this time, I have always greeted by friendly front desk staff Lucy and Stephanie, seen promptly on time by Dr Peterson and left with better health.
If you're done with seeing a different drs every time, and looking for a place you can depend on, Peterson Chiropractic is the address.
September 24, 2017Aykut S.Verified patient
Dr. Peterson is incredible! He takes the time to explain everything fully and makes sure you get any and all questions answered. I highly recommend seeing Dr. Peterson for any kind of chiropractic care!
September 26, 2017Maeve M.Verified patient
Adddressed all my concerns & more- fixed things that I thought were just always going to be a problem/normal. Amazing doctor. Extremely polite, explains everything thoroughly & really takes the time.

Can't speak well enough of doctor Peterson, in the beginning, I went to another chiro, he just wanted to juice up the insurance, and actually I felt worst after!. Dr Peterson is interested in fixing you, he's great. I had knee pain, he fixed me, I stopped going. (He wanted to continue therapy). After a few months, the pain came back, after a few sessions, pain going away again!. My only advice Stick to it , till he says, hell cure you!

Absolutely wonderful! I've been in pain after an injury for WEEKS, and for the first time since (even after a lot of Physical Therapy) I FINALLY feel better. Incredibly nice staff, and a wonderful breadth of knowledge. I'll absolutely be coming back!

Dr. Peterson knows his business and gets right to it. He delivers results in a short time and provides practical advice on how to prevent further injury. Polite, kind, and no-nonsense approach to well-being.
September 22, 2015Nick H.Verified patient
Dr Peterson was really friendly and completely put me at ease as this was my first visit to a chiropractor.
After listening to my issues he examed me then we discussed treatment, the time it would take and what the process would be. I felt like I was in good hands and look forward to being more 'aligned' thanks to Dr Peterson.

Best chiropractor in the city...
More than 1 year agoMichele D.Verified patient
Been going to chiroprators my whole life (I'm 7.... Kidding! I'm 44 years old) and Dr. Peterson is the most thorough and hands on chiropracter I've ever experienced. Wasn't a rush-n-crack like some places tend to be. He really worked deeply on the muscles in my shoulder, neck and back and released the tension before my actual "adjustment". It was my first visit so I hope the next one is as great and thorough as this session. If so, he's my new chiropracter of choice in the city!

Definitely recommend. I was able to see him the same day! Great bedside manner - explained everything thoroughly and clearly. I could feel the difference afterwards and I learned some stretching exercises that will probably help a lot.

Excellent!
He is a very pleasant and considerate doctor; good in listening and responding quickly to the symptoms. I find some doctors take a long time to figure out what needs to be done. I appreciated his agility and cheerful/positive attitude throughout the session.

Dr. Peterson is a great chiropractor, extremely knowledgeable & professional. He is very attentive to the patient trying to dig deep into the cause of pain rather than providing a temporary solution. The staff is also friendly & caring. I highly recommend Dr. P.
